The political

season gets underway big time next week with two candidates' forum scheduled.

The first is

set for Wednesday at the Senoia Senior Citizens Center on Howard Road.

All candidates, including commission candidates Vernon "Mutt"

Hunter and Marvin McKoy, are invited to the forum, which kicks off at

11:30 a.m.

The next day,

residents can head to the Sasser Building in Senoia City Park to hear

the candidates for Senoia City Council and County Commission discuss the

issues.

The forum starts

at 7 p.m. and refreshments will be served.

So far, this

has been an eventful campaign season in eastern Coweta County. Earlier

this year, Senoia Mayor Joan Trammell went against the political establishment

and endorsed McKoy against incumbent Hunter.

This week,

Senoia City Councilman Judy Belisle sent a letter to local newspapers

denouncing Ken Gordon's candidacy for City Council. (See related story.)
