“I’m not running for office, I’m running for you,” said  Corey Cockrell when he announced his candidacy for Mayor of Eutaw.

Cockrell has a B. S. in P. E. from Jacksonville State University; is a member of the Jacksonville State Hyper Club and  the Business Association Program.

He is a board member of the  Greene Co. Disaster Board (E-911), a volunteer/tutor and the football and basketball coach at the Greene Co. Housing Authority Summer Enrichment program.

Cockrell said he was the best candidate for Mayor because “I possess all the qualities it takes to be a great mayor. It combines two of my passions – building up the community and working with people to move them toward a great future.

“I am a hard-working, dependable, dedicated and devoted young  man who is  ready to help Eutaw achieve the goals that are set before us. I want to give the citizens of Eutaw an opportunity for better jobs, more activities for the children and a chance for all citizens to have a great future.

“My vision is to attract high paying jobs  by making Eutaw a great place to do business, having a better sewer system and better roads throughout the city, and providing recreational opportunities that promote a healthy lifestyle.

“I believe that Eutaw can be the most vibrant and liveable city in  America. With God and us standing together, we can  move this city forward,” said Cockrell.
