Candidate Forum
League of Women Voter of Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Area hosted a candidate forum March 17 at CROYA in Lake Forest. The event features an opening statement by unopposed Lake Forest mayoral candidate George Pandaleon, and the forum continues with 3rd ward alderman candidates Dr. Ara Goshgarian (seated left) and Dr. JoAnn Desmond (right). We thank Paula Lawson (LWV of Glenview/Glencoe) for moderating the event and CROYA for its generous hospitality.
