VOTER APATHY THAT IS WHAT HICKORY IS ALL ABOUT. WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE IS WHAT YOU SAY !!! WELL FOLKS YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE...we can't replace the mayor because no one was ready to stop rudy the ribbon cutter....but, we can clean up ridgeview and 70 w with our voice. jill patton is opposed to change....she said viewmont would be a blood bath for children at viewmont school if lowes was allowed in the area....how many deaths have been attributed to this change in the traffic...we need some forward thinkers...just give harry hipps and hank guess a chance...GO VOTE !!!! stop just sitting there...let's make a difference....it will take only a moment to go on over to highland rec center and cast a vote....do we want to sit and stagnate over the next years or GO FORWARD WITH SOME NEW THINKING OF THE MINDS....DO YOUR CIVIC DUTY FOR A CHANGE AND GO VOTE....YOUR VOTE DOES COUNT....

I was obviously wrong about the Hickory By Choice meeting. I do believe that is was originally scheduled for 10/15/2009, but it is now on 10/26/2009. Hope to see many of you there.
