Hi!
I'm Peter Wu, a Junior at Newton North High School
Are you interested in learning about the Newton Mayoral candidates? If so, please join us for a panel debate between Setti Warren and Ruth Balser on Wednesday September 23rd at 6:00. It will take place at Newton North High School, in the Film Lecture Hall.
This event is being sponsored by my club, the Newton North Political Forum, and will be a great opportunity to learn more about the positions about the two candidates.
I hope you will be able to join us, and please spread the word!
Thanks!
