Guest speakers are: Will Scharf candidate for Missouri Attorney General; State Sen. Denny Hoskins, candidate for Missouri Secretary of State; State Rep. Sean Pouche of District 13, Platte County Sheriff Mark Owen and Platte County Presiding Commissioner Scott Fricker.
From 5:30 to 6 p.m., Fricker and Owen will be presenting information and answering questions on the Platte County half cent sales tax proposal that is on the Aug. 6 election ballot.
