Tea Parties in Area

There have been numerous Tea Parties in our local area. There was a Tea Party September 4th in Dandridge, and on Labor Day in Kingsport. Cecile Testerman, Lois Mayes, Lisa Manis, and her daughters sold their Tea Party buttons that were designed by Lisa. Dob and Joyce O'Brien, local member of the Hawkins County GOP will be traveling to Washington September 18th for the National Tea Party, and we will get a report at the GOP meeting September 24th at 6:00 PM in the upstairs courtroom at the courthouse. Mark your calendar and plan to attend. This will be a combined meet and greet for Lt. Governor Ron Ramsey. The local party has already hosted a similar meeting for Congressman Zach Wamp and Bill Gibbons, both who are candidates for governor.
