The Anderson County Democratic Women’s Club will present a panel discussion by a group of women who have been candidates or elected to public office at its meeting on Monday, February 27. The club will host a soup dinner at 6 p.m. Monday at the Clinton Community Center, which is at 101 South Hicks Street in Clinton.

The women will discuss campaigns—what works and what doesn’t—as they also encourage other women to become candidates for office, a press release said.

On the panel will be Ellen Smith, current Oak Ridge City Council member; JoAnn Garrett and Ann McNees, both former Oak Ridge Board of Education members; and Mary Headrick and Melody Shekari, both former Democratic Congressional candidates in the Third Congressional District.

Soup, desserts, and beverages will be provided by the Anderson County Democratic Women’s Club. The cost of the dinner is $5.

No reservations are necessary. For more information, send an email to Ann Mostoller at amostoller@msw-law.com or call Mary Matheny at (865) 483-8937.
