The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. and is being hosted by the Newnan-Coweta Chamber of Commerce.

All candidates in the upcoming Nov. 4 election have been invited to attend.

Among those candidates are Coweta County Commissioner Paul Poole and his challenger for the District 1 seat, former Senoia councilman Bill Wood.
