“For years, Redmond Executive Association in partnership with Redmond Rotary and Redmond Kiwanis, have hosted local candidate forums at the Redmond Senior Center, free of charge for the community. Throughout the series of forums, we have consistently received positive feedback from community members, and candidates alike,” Jennifer Stephens, REA member, and forum coordinator. “Creating a space for conversation about issues that matter is mutually beneficial. Especially in a regional and county-wide election when all of the candidates are from Bend, having a forum in Redmond is a good opportunity to ask our questions, voice concerns, and share ideas.”
There is no cost to attend. We hope the forum creates an opportunity for our Redmond community to get to know local issues and candidates better before voting this November.
Next week, Friday, October 4, 1:00p – 3:00p, we will host Redmond Mayoral and City Council candidates in a panel forum style format with moderated questions.
