Chamber to host all-candidates forum

The Williams Lake & District Chamber of Commerce board of directors will host two different municipal candidate forums.

The Williams Lake & District Chamber of Commerce board of directors will host two different municipal candidate forums in Williams Lake for the 2011 municipal election.

Historically the chamber has organized and hosted all-candidates forums. The forums provide an opportunity for candidates to be seen and heard at a public venue. They also give the public an opportunity to meet the candidates and hear their plans for the future of Williams Lake.

The first forum will be Wednesday, Nov. 2 at the Tourism Discovery Centre starting at 5:30 p.m.

All candidates are invited; however, this forum will be only for the councillor candidates to speak about their platforms.

The second forum will be a luncheon Nov. 3 at Beeotcheese Bistro & Bakery at 11:30 a.m. This forum will be for mayoralty candidates with tickets sold in advance.

The format for both events will be confirmed at a later date.    There is no charge for the public event at the Tourism Discovery Centre and everyone is inviting to attend and participate.
