Meet the candidates forum set for July 20

The Thermopolis Chamber of Commerce will hold a Meet the Candidates Public Forum on Monday, July 20 at 6:30 p.m. in the Hot Springs State Park Pavillion.

They have sent out invitations to all national, state and local candidates for the coming election and are waiting for RSVPs. The candidates will do a two-minute introduction and possibly more depending on time allowed.

The event will allow the public to talk to the candidates and the Chamber encourages people to engage with the candidates and ask face to face questions. 

The Chamber and the Farm Bureau Federation is hosting the event and the local high school FFA Group will emcee. Everyone coming is encouraged to bring their own drinks as the Chamber will not be providing refreshments. There will be chairs provided, but you can bring your own. The Chamber adds a reminder to abide by the social distancing mandate.

There will be another event at the end of September. It will be for candidates for the school board and for representatives to discuss amendments and resolutions.
