Katherine Benefield, candidate for the Hamilton County School Board, District 1, is hosting a “God Bless America” Rally on July 15 at the Soddy Daisy Veterans’ Park, 9000 block of Dayton Pike. The event is free.
Her co-hosts are County Assessor Candidate Jelena Butler and State Senate District 10 candidate Andrae McGary. Other candidates who will be speaking include County Mayor candidate Dr. Rick Wilson, House District 26 candidate Dr. Lawrence G. Miller, Tn. House District 27 Frank Eaton, House District 30 candidate Sandy Smith, Tn. Congressional District 3 candidate Mary Headrick and Congressional District 3 candidate Bill Taylor.
