Fall
Schedule of Events
Congressman Joe Hoeffel joined a host of friends and supporters at a
fundraiser for the Democratic Candidates for County Council - Paul
Scoles, Bob Small and Debbie Thomas - at the home of Dr. Scoles on
Wednesday, August 27, 2003.
The event host committee consisted of State Senator Connie Williams and
State Representatives Greg Vitali and Thaddeus Kirkland.
Hoeffel is running for the US Senate seat currently held by Arlen
Specter in 2004. Prior to his election to Congress, Hoeffel served two
terms as a Montgomery County Commissioner. In his remarks, Hoeffel
spoke of his own campaign, and of his experience running for county
office. "I know it can get difficult and frustrating running as
Democrats in theses suburban counties. But with good, strong candidates
like Paul, Debbie and Bob, we can win, and I am happy to be part of
that effort. On to Victory!"

"Go back to Mississippi; go back to Alabama; go back to South Carolina
... knowing this situation can, and will, be changed," he said, the
rich baritone rising and falling, trembling, almost singing. "I say to
you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today
and tomorrow, I still have a dream."
--Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, August 28, 1963
