Door to door on Cave Avenue

The elk over by the rec grounds were bugling like mad this evening, their ardour apparently unaffected by the cold drizzle.   My political enthusiasm was equally undampened, and I was kept cheerful during my door-to-door trek by the warm welcome from many of the Cave Avenue folks.  Thanks for your patience with being interrupted at dinnertime!

Interesting conversations tonight about truck and bus idling, organics recycling, environmentally friendly public transit, about integrating young seasonal workers into the life of our community, about the pedestrian bridge, the management of public debt, and the relationship between the needs of residents and visitors.

Important dates in the campaign calendar

A lot of people have asked me when the forum is, so here's a quick list of opportunities to listen to/question the candidates:

Tuesday October 9, 7 pm - 10 pm at the BPL, an all-candidates' forum sponsored by BLLHMA.

Friday October 12, 10:20 - 11:30 am at the BCHS Gym, an all-candidates' forum for the high school students, open to parents.

Friday October 12, 7 pm - 9 pm at the Hoodoo, a meet-and-greet with the candidates

Of course, if you can't make it to any of these events, I'm happy to answer questions by phone, by email, or at the door.  If you're concerned because someone has told you that I'm "for" something, or "against" something else, please ask me about it directly. I'll be delighted to tell you my opinion and listen to your point of view, as well.
