A farewell reception for Mansfield Mayor Mike Gipson is set for December 27 from 2-4 p.m. at city hall. This will be a come and go event and a great time to visit with Gipson and show your appreciation for what he’s done for the city.
Gipson has selflessly gave of his time and efforts to better the City of Mansfield. He took office during a tumultuous time for the city, and united everyone to work together for the good. His job wasn’t an easy one, however he credits those around him and the citizens for making his time as mayor a success.
Mayor-Elect Buddy Black will also be in attendance, so come and give him a warm welcome. Everyone in the community is invited to come out and be a part of this event!
