Candidate Forum: Sponsored by CPO 8
North Plains Elementary School
This is the only forum the four of us will attend.
Hosted by the neutral CPO 8. All eight candidates have been invited.
All attendees will have the opportunity to submit questions at the door via notecards. Issue-based questions only please. No questions directed at a specific individual.
All candidates have been invited to attend this neutral event at North Plains Elementary School, we hope you’ll join us to hear what the Save North Plains candidates Ariel Goodwin, Aaron Dumbrow, Mandy Hagedorn, and Katie Reding have to say.
A duplicate forum has been advertised by the Chamber of Commerce, which will feature opposition candidates only, and which will offer limited seating for the community. Since we were only given one business day to respond after being invited, we were unable rearrange our schedules. We also have reservations about an event organized by Chamber of Commerce lacking impartiality due to opposition candidates’ direct affiliation.
Instead, we chose to focus on this forum hosted by the Community Participation Organization (CPO8) which is coordinating with the Washington County chapter of the League of Women Voters as a reputable impartial moderator.
We hope to see you there!
