“Frustrated citizens want better and I agree, we must do better,” Golden stated. “We need to listen to common sense solutions and use these solutions so that we can succeed together. I’m running to give you a voice and real change to the Muscogee Creek Nation.”

Golden added that she is a proven leader with:

• More than 30 years of administration and planning experience, backed by a strong educational foundation.

• Proven extensive national and local board involvement, complementing dedicated service on the National Council.

• Proven expertise in implementing quality programs with performance standards, committed to accountability, transparency, and enhancing services for all citizens.

For 13 years, Golden has been coordinating the annual All Sports Training Camps, in coordination with the Muscogee Nation Diabetes Program and the MCN Department of Health, teaming up with former Oklahoma Sooner and NFL Quarterback Thomas Lott to present the camps for students around the Muscogee Nation territory.

Golden held a meet and greet with former players and coaches yesterday evening in Okmulgee.

She asks everyone to get out and vote this week in the Primary Election.
