Candidates Night
The Chamber hosted their bi-annual Candidates Night, with a record 220 in attendance. Members of the Community were given the first hour to shake hands and ask their own questions in an informal format, and at 7:00 began a formal question and answer period, commentated by Chamber Director Theresa Mavity. A one minute self introduction and then questions--posed by the community, and written on note cards--were asked of the candidates and each were given two minutes to answer.Due to time constraints, only 3-4questions were asked of each candidate. A one-minute follow up was then allowed by each candidate for office.
The Humboldt County Chamber of Commerce does not endorse any political candidate for office, and we wish them all well.
Our thanks to all who attended.
