WKGC producer to speak at September 14 meeting

     Tom Hoots, producer of WKGC’s Somewhere in the Middle, will speak at the September 14 meeting of the Roundtable about his interest in and subsequent research into environmental issues.  He will try to help us understand how America’s long debate about the environment got us to where we now are in that often heated conversation.

     Tom is co-owner and chief engineer at Studio 812 in Lynn Haven, as well as part owner and design engineer at Sunelectro LLC.  In addition to producing Somewhere in the Middle, he produces and sometimes hosts WKGC’s Emerald Coast Studio.  In his spare time, he’s an instructor of an electric vehicle design and build class at Gulf Coast Community College.  He also serves as a volunteer instructor at the college for various classes in music production technology.

     Editor’s note:  This program will be a nice change of pace from politics.  That’s our story, and we’re sticking with it.  J

Lincoln-Reagan 2010 set for April 24

The annual fundraiser of the Bay County Republican Executive Committee (BCREC), Lincoln-Reagan 2010, is scheduled for Saturday, April 24, at the Edgewater Convention Center in Panama City Beach.

State Representative Will Weatherford, originally scheduled to be the event's keynote speaker, was forced to decline due to Florida House rules that prohibit legislators from speaking at political fundraisers during session. That's the bad news.

The good news is that U.S. Representative Adam Putnam, Republican candidate for Florida's Commissioner of Agriculture, has accepted the invitation to be the keynote speaker. Rep. Putnam held the Republican Party's third highest leadership post during the 110^th Congress in 2007 and 2008. During his five terms in Congress, he has become an influential leader on cyber security and federal technology policy.
