The B.E.A.R. Group who have ties to the extremist New Jersey Animal Rights Alliance is urging protestor to come out to the Vernon Town council meeting tonight, Thursday at 7:00 PM , location 21 Church Street.

A number of residents have asked me if I plan on having a fund-raiser in the fall to generate financial support for my campaign. Though I appreciate their interest and concern, I will not. I can not, in all good conscience, ask residents to donate their hard earned money to my campaign in these tough economic times. But, there are other ways of showing support that costs nothing.

If you would like to show your support, you can help me by spreading the word about my grassroots campaign. If you live in the second ward or have family and friends who do, ask them to check out my website by visiting www.willevins.com. You can also find me on facebook. Your personal \”word-of-mouth\” endorsement is more valuable to me than a donation for a newspaper ad or a yard sign.
