The campaign has been busy since we last updated the blog, and here it is halfway through October! On September 26, 2009, we started the day at the Peoria Democrat family picnic. The turnout was great, and the whole family had a great time. After enjoying the wonderful food (donated by retired Sen. George Shadid), we went to Kingston Mines for an event to benefit the families of service men and women injured in action. What a great cause. From there it was off to the St. Phil’s Fall Festival. Wow! What a turnout! Thanks to Bobby Spears for the invitation, and taking the time to meet with Chris and introduce us to some of the people. Also, thanks to Jim for the guided tour!
We met so many wonderful people throughout the day, it would be impossible to mention them all. Thanks to Billy and Shirley for all of their advice and guidance, and to everyone else for your support. We truly appreciate it!
