WALLER - Citizens for a Better Waller County will be hosting a Candidates Forum on Thursday, Oct. 23, at the Waller High School cafeteria in Waller.

Well informed voters will reap benefits for Waller County when they make their voices heard on November 4th,” said Don Garrett, CBWC president. “Having this forum in a debate format should also make the forum much more interesting for citizens.”
