Hangin' with local political-types way up in the LFG building

High on the 19th floor of the Lincoln Financial Building, you can plunk down $25 and plop down next to a commissioner or congressman.

It's the elected officials reception at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, hosted by the Greensboro Partnership.
From the release:

The Greensboro Partnership is hosting an Elected Officials Reception for community and business leaders to meet local, state, and federal elected representatives. The reception is an excellent opportunity to meet the individuals who represent you. The Elected Officials Reception was developed to provide a forum for the Greensboro/Guilford County community to familiarize themselves with local, state and federal elected leaders making decisions that affect quality of life, economic development, education, transportation, etc.

Are they serving beer? Because if they are, I say we buy tickets for the whole government team and go have a time. I know some would be amused...others, less so.

Maria Ruth Barton said:

Good suggestion, Mark! Just make sure it's not a "cash bar" before y'all blow $25 a head to buy $5 domestic longnecks.

Gerald Witt said:

Mark - I agree. They're selling five tickets for $100, you know. That's good value in government, right there.
