From Log Cabin to Town Hall: Moving to Lookout and starting her family here, Brooke Pippenger is the new Town Consultant for Lookout Mtn., TN
Humility and service are two words that quickly come to mind when one thinks about Brooke Pippenger. In her own words, she likes 'helping people, solving problems and valuing people'. Married to Andy, they moved to Lookout to raise a family - and boy have they. Living in their 'cabin in the woods' in the town of Lookout Mountain, TN, these two have parented three wonderful children in our dear community. The daughter of an Air Force service member, the genes to serve are very ingrained with Brooke. For years, Lkt GA has had Kenny Lee, and now Lkt TN has Brooke!
The Lookout town charter does not allow for a 'Town Manager' so Brooke is serving in the role of a 'Town Consultant' and a year into the new role, she is learning and helping with communication and Mayor Walker Jones must be very happy about this new help in town governance. Recruited by Mayor Jones, Brooke was happy to help out. Brooke has never met a stranger and she is very approachable all while combining a sincerity and humility that make her perfect for public service. She even gives out her phone # and email in the podcast!
Listen in and hear why Brooke is a very special person and why her style and skills are so well suited for her new role. Brooke of course praises fellow teammates such as Joe Hailey, Belinda Allen and Duane Schermerhorn.
Here's to Year 2 being a great one, so let's all give Brooke a big Lookout cheer of support as she continues to make an impact and improve the function of town government here on Lookout Mountain.
We are with you Brooke! Thank you for serving us! Well done Mayor - great addition!
Okay Mayor - don't be afraid - come on here and talk with us! You're still invited!
You too - Chief!
