The meeting will be conducated at Crenshaw Elementary School from 6-8 PM and citizens are invited and encouraged to attend.

As with previous Bolivar Peninsula meetings, citizens will have an opportunity to meet one-on-one with county, state and federal officials after the general topics are covered.
