For Tim Gute, Carroll really is his hometown — he was born to Art and Mickey Gute about 3 p.m. Monday, Nov. 25, 1957, at St. Anthony Hospital.
And Gute urges many other people too to call Carroll their hometown, no matter whether they were born here or moved to the community.
Gute has chosen “Hometown” as the theme for his year as Carroll Chamber of Commerce president.
“Whether you were born and raised here or not, you live here, you work here, you can promote the city. It is your hometown; you can call it your hometown,” said Gute during an interview at Market on 30, which he’s managed since the store opened more than 13 years ago.
