3

MAYOR WINNECKE DECLINED THE INVITIATION TO ATTEND THIS NON-PARTISAN EVENTS

Commander Mark Acker of the Veteran’s Council of Vanderburgh County  announced recently that the Council will host a “Call to Assemble” on September 23, 2015 beginning at 5:00 PM, at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

The “Call to Assemble” will be a non-partisan gathering of area political candidates and the general public to encourage “Good Public Policy” decisions by our elected officials. The “CALL TO ASSEMBLE” will be a peaceful,  positive and hopeful event that is planned to encourage honest, open governance, with transparency and will bring better accountability to our beloved City.

Veterans Memorial Coliseum in it’s current form, was dedicated April 18, 1917 to honor those brave Americans who answered the “CALL TO ASSEMBLE” and fight for what is right, in The Spanish American War and The War Between the States.

On Wednesday September 23rd, “The Great Lady” (Veterans Memorial Coliseum) shall once again be honored to serve as the host of Evansville first “CALL TO ASSEMBLE”.

State Representative and Mayoral Candidates Gail Reicken (D), Steven Wozniak an Independent and current Mayor Lloyd Winnecke (R) were invited to participate in a Lincoln-Douglas style question/answer session, featuring randomly selected written questions from the audience,. that are drawn from a barrel. Current officeholders and political candidates with their supporters, Tea Party Representatives, CORE Group, a contingency from the Libertarian Party, 2nd Amendment Patriots, Independents, Republicans and Democrats and the General public are invited to join in.

It’s extremely disappointing to announce that Mayor Winnecke declined the invitation to attend tis non-partisan event because he is going to his poorly attended MAYORS TRAVELING CITY HALL. meeting.

A group that re-enacts Civil War activities and local Veterans Honor Guard shall be part of the event festivities. Gary Wagner, a three time Purple Heart recipient is expected to moderate this event. This event will open with traditional Patriotic music.

Food and drink will be available. The doors will open at 5:00 pm.  Dress is casual, however Military Veterans are encouraged to wear their uniforms. VIP tables are available to groups and organization for a minimal fee. General admission is free.  All proceeds will go to the Veteran’s Council of Vanderburgh County to help defray the costs of the maintenance of the Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

For additional information to purchase a VIP table, to become a sponsor of this event or to pledge a donation to the Veteran’s Council of Vanderburgh County please contact the Event Coordinator Denise Shane-Cheaney at 812.909.1900 or by emailing PinkelephantClebrations@gmail.com.

34

IS IT TRUE that 6th Ward City Councilman Al Lindsey is also fed up with At-Large City Councilman Jonathan Weaver making insulting and demeaning remarks about him and other City Council members?  …it looks like Mayor Winnecke’s main Democratic supporter Jonathan Weaver has additional re-election challenges?

IS IT TRUE when Mayor Winnecke declined to attend  the local Veterans Council “CALL TO ASSEMBLE” event it may have caused him political problems with area Veterans groups?  …Veterans don’t like being overlooked or being rejected by public officials?

IS IT TRUE at Wednesdays night FOP PAC Committee meeting At Large City Councilman Jonathan Weaver joined Republican Dan McGinn call to increase our taxes by 25%?

IS IT TRUE we predict the FOP PAC Committee will endorse Winnecke For Mayor and At-Large candidates Jonathan Weaver,  Michelle Mercer and Dr. Dan Adams?  …we also predict that Justin Elpers-5th Ward,  Anna Hargis from the 3rd Ward and of course Missy Mosby from the 2nd Ward shall be endorsed by the FOP PAC Committee?  …we also hear that its possible that not one African  American City Council candidate  will be endorse by the FOP PAC Committee?

IS IT TRUE we are hearing that some of the EPD officers are wondering what was the $700,000 of DRUG FORFEITURE money spent on?  …this might be a campaign issue that candidates for Mayor and City Council should look into?

IS IT TRUE do you feel it’s appropriate for elected and appointed officials that award contracts to consultants, vendors or contractors who does business with the City to receive political donations or free vacation trips from them?

IS IT TRUE we have been told that that Evansville have never elected a female as Mayor in our 200 year history?
