Coming to Ruritan Park, Dubois: Democratic Party "Your Community, Your Say" town hall

The fourth Big Tent town hall in the series is set for this Wednesday, August 19 at Ruritan Park in Dubois.

Dubois–Neighbors from across Dubois County and beyond are invited to a community town hall. It is the fourth in the series of Big Tent town halls hosted by the Dubois County Democratic Party. Let us talk about what is important for communities in North-Eastern Dubois County.

This event is all about real conversation. The microphone comes to you, giving everyone a chance to ask questions and share their thoughts. Moderated by Mary Allen, candidate for US House of Representatives IN-08, we’ll explore how local government actually works, who really sets the agenda, and what you can do when you feel your voice isn’t being heard.

“If you remember the Phil Donahue show, that’s the idea,” said Angi Nehmer, who moderated the first town hall in St. Anthony. “No podium, nobody standing up front giving a speech. Four or five guests around a coffee table, and a microphone that comes out to you. And there’s no such thing as a dumb question. If you’re sitting there wondering about something, I promise you somebody else in that room is wondering the same thing.”
