[GREN-Exec] Fwd: election

[John Jackson]

Please read below about possible all candidates meeting like the one we did last municipal election. Do you think we should join in on this with other groups?

If you think we should, please let us know about what you would you do differently, if anything, from last time, and what you thought made it successful.

We should decide very soon because it is important to set a date right away so we can get it into all the candidates' calendars right away.

John

If memory serves, I think we invited all the candidates in the Region and gave them 2 minutes each and presented them by Ward, had refreshments, and I think someone from REEP recorded it and you posted it on your website. I believe the highlight was Cheryl with the squeaky toy giving everyone a 10 second warning. 8-)
