There’s not much new going on, the Tawes event seems to suck the air out of things for awhile. I think I’m only adding 2 or 3 things this week. At least it doesn’t take too long to do unlike some other posts!
Wicomico County:
July 20: Bonnie Luna has on her calendar an appearance at the Salisbury Chamber of Commerce membership luncheon at the Ramada Inn in Salisbury.
July 21: In this case, I’m going to guess that there’s going to multiple candidates there; however, thanks to the Luna calendar I know she’ll be at a Spiritual Leadership Breakfast. For more information: (410) 749-1633.
July 24: It’s the normal 4th Monday meeting of the Wicomico County Republican Club at the Chamber of Commerce building at 144 E. Main Street. This month’s speaker is District 37 Senator Rich Colburn.
July 27: Like last Thursday, the NAACP is holding the second of its three candidate forums at the Mills Memorial Baptist Temple at 1323 Jersey Road in Salisbury. This one will feature those running for Sheriff, State’s Attorney, Judge of the Orphans Court, and the two central committees.
Worcester County:
July 20: U.S. Senate candidate Michael Steele is slated to make a fundraising appearance in Berlin. I still don’t have all of the details on it.
July 20: Also on this date, District 38B aspirant Jack Lord will be at the Worcester Farm Bureau meeting.
Somerset County:
July 19: Usually this turns out to be the political event of the year on the lower Eastern Shore. The J. Millard Tawes 30th Annual Crab and Clam Bake runs from 1:00 to 4:30 p.m. and almost anyone who is anyone in the world of Maryland politics is there. This will be at Somers Cove Marina.
WICO-AM (Bill Reddish morning show):
Here is the schedule I have for the next week two weeks, all of these are for Wicomico County offices:
July 17: District 1 Council candidate Sheree Sample-Hughes.
July 18: District 3 Council incumbent Gail Bartkovich.
July 19: County Council at-large candidate Brenda Hughey-Jones.
July 20: District 5 Council candidate Dorothy White.
July 21: District 5 Council incumbent Larry Dodd. (Rescheduled from July 10th, hopefully there will be no house fires on Friday.)
July 24: District 4 Council candidate Neil Bayne.
July 25: District 3 Council candidate Mike Pretl.
July 26: District 4 Council candidate David MacLeod.
July 27: District 5 Council candidate Ed Werkheiser.
July 28: District 5 Council candidate Joe Holloway.
Somewhere in there Larry Dodd needs to be rescheduled as well. I did not get an updated list in listening last week. I got the list today, thanks Bill.
Hopefully after what seems to be a late July breather things will be happening again.
