DAVIE ACADEMY - Many of them started campaigning last year, well before it was time to put the money down and fill out the paper work.
The six Davie residents who want to be the next Davie Clerk of Superior Court, replacing the retiring Ken Boger, are putting up signs, buying advertisements, and eating at plenty of benefit breakfasts and suppers. And all appeared at the Woodmen of the World candidate forum last week. All tried to woo the audience in their favor.
Brian Brandon, the owner of Brandon Rehab in Advance, said he believes in giving back to his country and community.
As a business owner for the past 14 years, he knows how to manage people and budgets, he said. “The clerk must be an effective manager ... make decisions and be a leader in the office and community.”
He said he is the only candidate with executive experience. “I won’t have to learn how to run that office efficiently and effectively,” Brandon said ... subscribe to the Davie County Enterprise Record, P.O. Box 4639, Salisbury, N.C. 27145.
