Happy Veteran's Day and Upcoming Weekend Events

Happy Veteran’s Day to all our veterans – in addition, Happy Marine Corps Birthday!

We had a great weekend! We got 300 signatures and I want to say Thank You to all the volunteers that showed up to help with getting signatures.

Second Weekend Petition Drive! (rain, snow or shine)

The month of November is going to go fast, and we need to get our petitions finished by the end of it. This weekend we are having a second petition drive and we need everyone to help pitch in! Our goal is to have over 1,000 signatures, we’re getting closer to our goal, however; we still need your help.

Saturday: 10 a.m. – November 15^th – west side drive: We will be meeting again at Prisco’s Next Door Cafe located at 1118 Prairie Street at 10 a.m. We will have maps, petitions and clipboards for you – however, if you can bring your own clipboard that would be great! If you can give 2 hours or more I would really appreciate it.

Sunday: 12 (noon) – November 16^th – east side drive: We will be meeting at Burger King on the corner of Montgomery and Route 34 at 12 (noon). We will have maps, petitions and clipboards for you. Again, if you have your own clipboard, please bring it and if you can give 2 hours or more that would be great.

If you can make it, but are running late; please just call me on my cell phone (630) 334-0341. I will be out all afternoon on both days.

If you cannot make either day, however; would like to help out by getting signatures from your neighbors please send me an e-mail. That would help out too.

Again, I want to thank everyone who came out last weekend and everyone who has been working really hard already to get signatures. You are doing a great job and I really appreciate it! Things are going good but we need to make sure our petitions are perfect because our opponent will try to get me off the ballot on any technicality they can – which is why we need to exceed 1,000 signatures to be safe.

Take care and hopefully I’ll see you this weekend.
