What do our Lone Tree residents and regional leaders say about Wynne?
Wynne Shaw is my clear choice to become Lone Tree's next mayor. For eight years now, Wynne has effectively and conscientiously represented our residents, both within our city and well beyond, elevating Lone Tree's status throughout the entire metro area through her respected leadership on many boards and commissions. Being a highly effective mayor for Lone Tree is a full time job, requiring the time commitment, dedication, responsiveness, and depth of financial, governmental, and other knowledge and experience that Wynne has steadfastly demonstrated throughout her two terms on city council. Please join me in electing Wynne as Lone Tree's next mayor on May 7th!
— Sharon Van Ramshorst, Past Mayor Pro Tem for the City of Lone Tree, resident of The Charter, Lone Tree
In Wynne Shaw's eight years as a Lone Tree City Council member and Mayor Pro Tem, she has always been immediately responsive to all questions and concerns that my neighbors and I have had, always giving us a much better understanding of both the power and the limitations that our city has in any given situation. There is no one more knowledgeable, responsive, conscientious, honest, ethical, hardworking, dedicated, and level-headed than Wynne! Now more than ever, Lone Tree needs a mayor who: 1) possesses a considerable depth of local and regional knowledge and experience and a strong professional financial background, 2) will be both creative and innovative in working with staff and council to find new sources of revenue for our city, 3) has a long proven track record of successfully collaborating and solving issues with leaders throughout the Denver metro area, and 4) has continued willingness to devote the many, many hours required each week to effectively serve our city and our residents. That person is Wynne Shaw!
—Jeanette NewVille, resident of The Enclave, Lone Tree
Over the past eight years, Wynne has been dedicated to making the best decisions for Lone Tree, and for elevating our city's status and influence within the larger Denver Metro community.

Whenever we call her, she immediately springs into action! Please vote for Wynne for mayor so she can continue working for us all!
—Roland and Deb Stubblefield, residents of Masters Park, Lone Tree
As my neighbor and friend since 2001, Wynne Shaw is one of the most civic-minded, ethical, and honest people I know, and as a Lone Tree City Council member/mayor pro tem, the most effective and responsive elected leader who has ever represented me and many others. With major city growth planned over the next 30 years, this mayoral election must be about depth of knowledge and experience, and the time necessary to continue serving our citizens and representing our city throughout the much larger metro area region. Wynne has clearly demonstrated that she possesses all of these strengths, making her uniquely qualified to become Lone Tree's next mayor.

These are essential qualities of leadership and I urge voters to carefully consider Wynne Shaw as they mark their ballots in this spring’s election

We need Wynne’s continued leadership and experience – please join me in supporting Wynne Shaw for Mayor for the City of Lone Tree.
