House candidate Grogan to tour around town on trolley

If see you a trolley winding through Carytown, the Museum District or the West End of Richmond today, wave to William K. Grogan .

The independent candidate for the 68th District seat in the House of Delegates will conduct a “Whistle Stop Tour” today, starting at 1 p.m. at First Baptist Church at Monument Avenue and Boulevard. People are invited to board there around 12:45 p.m., or to hop on at a stop along the way.

Grogan will serve lemonade and ice cream as he winds his way through the area, stopping at the St. Benedict Oktoberfest and the Armenian Food Festival at St. James Armenian Church on Pepper Avenue.

“I try to do things that people enjoy and are a benefit to them, and I can get out that way,“ said Grogan, a lawyer who is seeking to unseat Del. G. Manoli Loupassi, R-Richmond. “People on the trolley with me can get out and mingle, maybe get some food.“

The tour will run through 5 p.m. For more information, contact Grogan at (804) 347-7683 or bill@ billgrogan.com.
