By Space Coast Daily // July 14, 2012
Free Admission For Event
BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – The 2012 Bi-Annual Brevard Republican Picnic will be from noon to 4 p.m. today at the Wickham Event Pavilion at Brevard Community College in Melbourne.
The 2012 Picnic will allow voters to engage with candidates at the local, state and federal level, as well as members of local Republican clubs.
A straw poll will be conducted by the Brevard Supervisor of Elections Lori Scott.
The event is hosted by the Brevard Republican Executive Committee and organized by the Brevard Republican Council of Clubs.
Event Sponsor
Local Conservative Talk Radio Station WMMB-AM is sponsoring the event.
“Brevard is a Republican county, and the fact is most of our races are decided in the primaries, not the general election,” 2012 Picnic Chair Matt Nye said.
“This event gives voters the opportunity to meet and interact with the Republican candidates at every level in a casual, fun and relaxed environment.”
The event will feature guest speakers, entertainment and dozens of exhibitors. Food and drinks will be provided at no charge and admission to the picnic is free.
“This is one of the most important election cycles in the history of our country,” Nye said. “Our goal is to turn out as many Republican voters as possible to ensure they are as well informed as possible before the primaries.”
