The format for the Open House will be like a trade show where tables will be set up for the candidates and voters can meet directly with the candidates and address their concerns and questions.
Candidates include Lindsay Koch, Kelsie Van Belleghem, Mark LaBelle, Cecile Marcino, Chris Poate, Louis Roussin, Logan Haney, Barb Manson, Joel McGrath, Bob Bernie, Lisa Moncrief, Mark Perrault, Graham Chaze, Sharon Smith and Mort Goss.
Each candidate will have five minutes to present their political platform before meeting the public. The open house will run from 6:00-9:00 pm on Wednesday, October 5 at Seven Generations Education Institute.
Thursday evening between 7:00-9:00 pm, will see the all-candidates forum, featuring the three candidates running for Mayor.
David Byers-Kitt, Andrew Poirier and Andy Scribilo will be given five minutes each to present their platforms, followed by pre-selected questions from the chamber members, as well as questions from the community.
