Message from the Mayor

Message from the mayor:

It is an honor and a privilege to serve and represent Butler as its mayor, so it is with great pleasure that I welcome newcomers to our municipality and all to The Town of Butler’s website. If you are a visitor to our area, you have chosen a destination that has a wealth of heritage and cultural diversity.  Our town is rich in community spirit with a strong sense of civic consciousness as exhibited by numerous community groups including a diligent group of proud military veterans who represent our American Legion and VFW; energetic parents who volunteer much of their free time to coordinate activities for our children like our softball & baseball programs and Butler Fest; a historical society which strives to preserve our past; and many concerned and active citizens who are always willing to pitch-in for events such as “Relay For Life” or donate and assist in causes like animal rescue. Our residents benefit from a first-rate Volunteer Fire Department; a dedicated police force; modern utilities and communications amenities; and exemplary healthcare services ranging from the top-notch paramedics & EMTs of our ambulance service to the professional personnel of our new medical facility, Choctaw General Hospital. On behalf of the town council, the entire staff, and myself,  we hope you will enjoy your visit to our website and we invite you to personally experience our lovely town and partake of our hospitality and attractions. Perhaps, you may even choose to live or invest here.
