It is that time or year again to mark your calendars for the Annual Ice Cream in the Park, and Town Hall meeting. In addition to the ice cream and opportunity to mix and mingle with your neighbors, you will hear a wrap up of the legislative session from myself and others.
Also participating in the Town Hall meeting will be Senator Danny Verdin, and Representative Eric Beddingfield.
