Event Description:


JOIN US AT OUR VIRTUAL 2020 CANDIDATE  FORUM

The Dickinson Area Chamber takes a vital interest in elections, most importantly, the candidates running for local office and the issues facing our area and community. The Chamber feels it is extremely important to inform our members and the general public of the candidates, their background, past experience, reasons for seeking public office, and priorities if elected.

We provide this Candidate Forum as a public service, and we are privileged and proud to play a role in the democratic process. The Dickinson Area Chamber is non-partisan and does not endorse or contribute funds to any candidate for  elected office.

The Dickinson Press and the Governmental Relations Committee of the Dickinson Area Chamber of Commerce will be hosting a virtual Candidate Forum on Thursday, May 14 at 5:30 PM.

Be sure to tune-in to the Facebook Live event!


This event is open to the public and will feature City Commission and Park District Commission candidates providing answers to questions generated by the public prior to the Candidate Forum.
