About this stop
The full picture
Johnson County Democrats host the **Roosevelt Dinner** on **Thursday, September 10**, with a **6:00 p.m.** start on the campaign calendar. The host says the evening program and menu are **very close but not finalized**. Speeches are on the **University of the Ozarks** campus in Clarksville; the host will send a campus map with parking and the building entrance closer to the date. This is a **county Democratic Party** dinner, not a Grappe-hosted event. The theme is turning out Democrats to vote. Statewide candidates share the program **equally** — **ten minutes** each, **no single keynote**. The host asked speakers to talk about showing up at the polls, not only issues and campaign stances. University of the Ozarks Public Safety is handling evening security and coordinating with local and state law enforcement. The same afternoon, the AME West Conference candidate session is in Magnolia (1:00–3:30 p.m.). Those are different events; Magnolia to Clarksville the same day is a long drive.
