BenitoLink will host another popular Report to the County Town Hall on Nov. 7 at Paine’s Restaurant in Hollister. This civic engagement event is held on non-election years to give community members a chance to hear from recently elected officials. Leaders are given several minutes to report on their work and then answer audience questions on current topics.
The event starts at 5 p.m. with appetizers provided. The program begins at 5:30 p.m.
Tickets are $12.50 in advance and $20 at the door.
Report to the County 2023 hosts will be BenitoLink founder Julie Morris and retired San Jose Mercury reporter Larry Slonaker.
After opening comments, hosts will ask a few questions and then open the floor to audience for exchanges with the panel members.
Schedule and participants:
Panel One
U.S. Rep. Zoe Lofgren
Lofgren represents Congressional District 18 which includes parts of Santa Clara, San Benito, Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties.
