Thirty-five years ago, I was waiting at the bus stop when I first met Robert Mayes. 

We grew up in the same neighborhood that was filled with close-knit families and a ton of kids. Rob treated everyone as if they were his own family, which was very impactful for us. My siblings and I would always say “Rob is going to be the president one day!”

Due to my father being den leader, scout meetings were held at my house. This allowed us the opportunity to watch Rob progress through the ranks while participating in countless events that helped our local community. Rob’s patience with the younger scouts and the admiration they held for him left a lasting impression on us. 

Today, he is still affiliated with the Scouts and helping our children build a path to a bright future. He has always been involved with our community, from scouts to baseball as well as any school event he could assist with.

Growing up in Cortlandt, Rob knows how family oriented it has always been and how important it is to bring the community together. The town has seen a lot of change over the years, and I believe with Robert Mayes as councilman, it will grow even stronger.

Best of luck.
