Actually, the LWV timing is perfect for me. Spring break means no school meetings, sports, etc. to conflict. No time is best for everyone. However I join Mary Ann in expressing my appreciation to the LWV for sponsoring the forum.

Thank you to The League of Women Voters of Oak Park for sponsoring the candidates forum. However, the date should have been considered because this is the start of District 97 and 200 spring break. Is there an option to change the date??
