The Clinton Chamber of Commerce and our Ambassadors Committee are hosting a Legislative Luncheon on Monday, March 18th at the Elks Lodge Banquet Room from 11:00am (that’s when serving begins) until 1pm. We will start the program around 11:40 and if you are still eating, that’s certainly no problem. We will have Clinton Mayor Moberly, Henry Co. Presiding Commissioner Stone, MO Gov. Parson, a rep. for U.S. Sen. Schmitt, U.S. Rep. Alford, MO Sen. Crawford, and MO Rep. Kalberloh. Find out what is happening in Washington D.C. and here in MO. There may be time for a short ‘question and answer session’ after each speaker and a time to speak individually with each presenter if they are available after the event. The cost for the luncheon will be $15 and those tickets are on sale now. There will be sub sandwiches, soup, salad, dessert, and drink. Just call or email YOUR Chamber to reserve your tickets (660-885-8166 or joyce@clintonmo.com). We are also looking for sponsors for this event. Sponsor levels include $250, $500, and $1,000 for the back page of the program. Sponsors receive their logo in the program and one ($250), two ($500) or four ($1,000) free tickets to the luncheon. Once again, you can call or email to become a sponsor. We certainly hope you plan on attending this event March 18th to hear from our elected officials talking about a variety of subjects. Seating will be limited. This is open to the public.
