The Beginning

I've been creating my brochure and working on my Meet and Greet Root Beer Float afternoon at the park.  This will be my first campaign event.  I'm hoping to see lots of people and also raise enough money to cover my brochures.  I will be getting out and door knocking in September and October and would like to hand out them out.  I'm finding people are very receptive to my campaign and are very encouraging. 
I've been attending city council meetings.  The meeting on Tuesday, Sept 7th will be the budget meeting.  I just received this budget today so will look it over before Tuesday.  So far there has not been anyone attending city council meetings but those of us running for office with city.
I've met with our local liquor store manager.  There are items with the liquor store which will be coming up in the next year or so and I wanted to be brought up to date on what the options for the city might be.  He has managed this store for many years and does a very good job.  The city is lucky to have him.  I'm sure there will be more on this issue in the coming months.
