Key issues facing residents of the City of Hialeah will be center stage Oct. 13 as each candidate in the race for Mayor and City Council gather to present their vision for Florida’s sixth largest city in a public forum moderated by the Federation of Republican Women of North Dade (FRWND).

The one-of-a-kind “Meet & Greet” at Goodlet Park Theater, 6-9 p.m., offers a opportunity for the five candidates in the race for the Mayor’s seat and 14 others competing to represent Council Districts V, VI, and VII, to share their platforms in advance of the start of Early Voting on Oct. 25 and Primary Day, Nov 2.

Following opening remarks by FRWND Chapter President Maricel Cobitz at 6 p.m., Moderator Lucy Pereda, Radio personality at WWFE La Poderosa 670AM, will invite each candidate to speak separately in sequence through the duration of the event. Rather than take questions on stage, audience members are encouraged to meet with candidates in the theater lobby prior to and following formal remarks. The 250-seat municipal theater is located in Goodlet Park, 4200 West 8th Ave., Hialeah, FL 33012. Pre-registration to attend the event is required via email at maricel.frwnd@gmail.com.
