(April 7, 2016) On Wednesday, April 13, an informational forum will be held for District 3 voters (in Worcester County), featuring their three Board of Education candidates: Sara Thompson (incumbent), Shirley Bunting-Moran and Francis Gebhart.  
District 3 extends (essentially) from various parts of: West Ocean City, Synepuxent and Berlin down through the Assateague and Southpoint areas.  
Sponsored by the Worcester County Tea Party’s Speaker Series, the forum will be held at the Ocean Pines Library, just in time for early voting (Thursday, April 14 through Thursday, April 21, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.) and primary election day (April 26, 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.).  
Each candidate will speak individually for 10-15 minutes, in response to previously prepared questions, followed by the public’s questions. It should be noted that this is not a debate.
The express purpose of this informational forum is for the benefit of District 3 voters. However, since the forum is part of the monthly meeting, the public is, as always, welcome and encouraged to attend and participate.  
The library is located on Cathell Road, at Route 589. The meeting begins at 7 p.m., and the doors open at 6:30 for light refreshments.
