Voter Awareness Council to host Woodlands Township Candidate Reception

By  | 

The Voter Awareness Council (VAC) has announced the first annual Woodlands Township Board of Directors Candidate Reception to be held on Wednesday, September 27, 2017 at the Black Walnut Café located at 9000 New Trails Dr., The Woodlands, TX 77381. The informal reception will run from 4:30 to 5:45 and will be a short walk from the regularly scheduled Township Board meeting to be held next door at 6:00.

This event is designed to give the candidates and interested Woodlands residents an opportunity simply to mix and mingle in a casual, informal setting. Light refreshments and a cash bar will be available to everyone.

“We also wanted an opportunity to thank all of the candidates for their willingness to serve our community” says Amy Lecocq, VAC Vice President and initiator of this event. “There will be plenty of time for candidate forums, campaign events, etc. in the future – we just wanted to add a little fun to the process”.

The Woodlands Township Board of Directors is comprised of seven at-large positions with two-year term elections held every November. This year Position #5 with John McMullan as an unopposed candidate, Position #6 with Ann Snyder, and Position #7 with Laura Fillault and Carol Stromatt as candidates will be on the ballot. Early voting starts October 23rd, and Election Day is November 7th.

VAC is a local non-profit corporation established by a number of Montgomery County residents designed to help encourage and equip citizens to vote. VAC’s mission is to inform and educate citizens on our local elections, improve the overall voting experience and to increase voter turnout. See www.vactx.org for more information.
