Here is an article from the advertiser news. Please take this opportunity to visit on of our GREAT historical sites (Oaklawn) and get a chance to meet the candidates running for office in this election. This really should not be missed!
Also, at some point today I will post the video from last night's Mayoral debate moderated by Dustin Dunbar. Remember that name for future elections!
See you tonight!

Great event!! Ron Shuff was awesome to open up Oaklawn for this meet and greet. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and so many canidates and citizens attended. I look forward to future events at Oaklawn.
Cindy Jobe was not present. Only she and Chester Darden decided not to make an appearance.
Charlie S was not there when the candidates all spoke and introduced themselves either.
Charlie at least showed up. Cindy and Chester didn't even care enough to do that.
