Let's get it started...

Today's the day that I officially "Filed" for the 2nd District City Council position. I'm on the ballot and it's time to get to work.

I was very excited to read about the "Meet the Candidates" event hosted by the Uptown Neighborhood Association on Thursday, March 1st at 7pm.
Here's the posting from View From the Highway.
On thursday March 1, 2007 the Uptown Neighborhood Association is hosting a "Meet Your Candidates" event.

We are inviting all of those folks who have registered to run the the May 2007 Municipal Primary Election for New Albany. So far all we have contacted, save one, has indicated they will attend.

We will have tables set up around the perimenter of the room with placards in front of each candidate with their name and the office they are seeking.

We are inviting the public , other neighborhood groups, as well as our own members to come by and discuss with the candidates individually whatever is on their minds concerning New Albany's future.

The Uptown Neighborhood Association is neither endorsing nor sponsering any particular candidate for any particular office. We are doing this solely to give the public a chance to meet those seeking office personally and for the seekers to hear what is on the voters minds up close.

The meeting begins at 7:00PM and light refreshments will be served. So come join us and bring your best questions to pose to the candidates.

My bad! The meeting will be held in the basement of the Silver Street United Methodist Church.
It is located right behind the Swifty Gas Station at the corner of Spring & Silver Streets.

I hope to see you there!!!

I would like to thank Vicky from the Uptown Neighborhood Association for extending an invitation via email so quickly. I would also like to thank "bluegill" from
NA Confidential for being so resourceful and so quick to create a link to this blog. Great job updating the NA Confidential site with candidate information, it's where I've been keeping up with who's running!!!

It's been an exiciting day! The support and enthusiam is very encouraging!

Somebody stop me if I start sounding like a politician!!
