MARYVILLE, Mo. — The Greater Maryville Chamber of Commerce invites the public to attend its Summer Candidate Forum on Wednesday, July 15, at 6:30 p.m. in the Rose Hill Acres Event Center, 105 S. Main St., Maryville. Doors will open at 6 p.m.
The free event provides voters the opportunity to hear directly from candidates before the upcoming August primary election.
Invitations have been extended to candidates in three contested races:
- Missouri State Auditor
- U.S. Representative, District 6
- Nodaway County Prosecuting Attorney
The forum will begin with brief introductory remarks from each candidate, followed by a question-and-answer session moderated by a panel of local media representatives.
Candidates seeking offices without opposition have also been invited to attend and will be available to meet with attendees during a reception immediately following the forum.
“The Candidate Forum is a great opportunity for citizens to hear directly from candidates and acquire the information they need to help them make an informed vote,” said Becky Albrecht, Executive Director of the Greater Maryville Chamber of Commerce, in a news release. “The Chamber conducts this event to connect candidates and the community. It is just one of the many ways the Chamber advocates, connects, and promotes for a better Maryville, and we are thankful for Evergy’s sponsorship.”
