| Newport Mayor-Elect Dennis Barber |
After Retiring from the US Coast Guard, and running a furniture business, Mr. Barber now works as a Captain in the Carteret County Sheriff's Department. He has served with numerous area non-profits and boards, many in the mental health and medical field, including the Onslow/Carteret Behavioral Health Board, Crisis Intervention Team Program, National Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, Project Lifesaver International, and numerous groups on motorcycle rides to raise funds for charity. He has been married to Wendy G. Barber for 35 years and has three children and one granddaughter.
His top stated priority during the election as stated in the Carteret News-Times, was to "call upon the community groups and the people of Newport to discuss the issues that they believe are most important. and .... then focus on the ones the people and the community as a whole believe are the top priorities". We look forward to having him at Newport Rotary to start the dialogue.
