I’m hearing that we have two public opportunities to meet the candidates for American Fork Mayor and City Council before the August 15 primary. I’ll have more information soon, perhaps, but for now . . .
July 29 Debate
A debate is scheduled for Saturday, July 29, at the American Fork Hospital meeting room. This is sponsored by the American Fork Chamber of Commerce.
- Meet and Greet: 9:30-10:00 a.m.
- Mayoral Debate: 10:00-11:00 a.m.
- Council Debate: 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon
The public is invited.
August 7 Concert in the Park
Candidates will be at the August 7 Concert in the Park, at the Amphitheater on Monday, August 7, 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. The concert itself is free, and the public is invited.
If you see me at either event, come say hello.
On Your Own
There’s no substitute for speaking with candidates in person, but as the election approaches, you’ll find information, links, and commentary here at afelection.info, as well as notes and probably audio from the debate. You can make your own contacts too, of course. Here is contact information for mayoral candidates and city council candidates.
Be sure to thank them all for running. It’s not a small thing.
Melinda (and earlier commenters), thanks for reading, and especially for sharing your thoughts.
