This guy (gal?) just had to keep adding his (her?) two cents-making this a truly "rural forum"Thanks to a great group of responsive candidates and WONDERFUL group of volunteers, we had over 100 people attend our event, even with the horrible winds and rain!
Many thanks to the Walkers for the use of their guest ranch. We couldn't have done it without them!
We will keep adding photos and information from the event as both become available.
Here's to this sort of multi-partisan educational and informational event becoming even more popular in the following years!
