Jon Justice (FM 104.1) will be the keynote speaker at the June 7th LD-28 meeting at Republican Headquarters. The meeting will start at 9AM sharp. I would strongly encourage any candidate and campaign manager that is running for, or is interested in, running for office to attend as the focus will be on the proper way to prepare and interview on TV and radio.

There will be a no holds barred Q&A after Mr. Justice's opening comments. If you are interested in how the media works you are welcome to attend. If you wish to make an appointment to be on Jon's show this is your golden opportunity.
