Merita Callaway To Kick Off Re-Election Campaign for Supervisor, District 3
Murphys, CA....County Supervisor Merita Callaway will host two open-to-everyone events, one in Arnold, the other in Murphys, to kick off her campaign for re-election in District 3. The first will be Wednesday, March 12, at the Milliaire Winery, 276 Main St. in Murphys, an area that was added to the district in 2011. The event will be from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. “I am looking forward to meeting and chatting with the voters in the Murphys/Douglas Flat area,” says Callaway. “Although I know many of them, having been involved in their various events over the years, this will be the first time they will have an opportunity to vote for me as their supervisor.”
Milliaire is donating wine for the occasion. Fruit drinks and water will be served along with an assortment of tasty snacks. Guitarist Fred Treece, who plays with the groups Tour Guides and Cantamos, will provide the background music. Jim Bailey will emcee.
The second kick-off will be Thursday, March 27, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., in The Hub, 1225 Oak Court, Arnold.
“The people of the northeastern part of the district and I are old friends,” states Callaway. “I have served them as their supervisor for many years and I am anxious to continuing that relationship.”
The Arnold area event will have a similar format. Hovey Winery will provide the wine. At both celebrations, those in attendance will have a chance to purchase tickets for a raffle featuring wine and fine art as prizes.
“This is a critical time for Calaveras County,” said Callaway. “We are facing many serious decisions that must be based on a thorough knowledge of how county government works and what solutions are feasible. I have diligently served the people of the county through good times and bad. I am confident that I have the talent and the temperament to help chart the best possible course for the next four years.”
The primary election will be June 3.
