In which Friends and supporters of The Advocates radio program and its host Niel Young of Laconia gather for a late spring luncheon at the home of Ken and Holli Gorrell on Shaker Road, Northfield...this included good food and drink, some  joking around...and lots of political talk...

First the introductions...

Niel Young and former Franklin Mayor Tony Guinta exchange quips...

Republican N.H. District One House Candidate John Stephen

Franklin Mayor Ken Merryfield (in doorway), Tom Brown and Rep Paul Hopfgarten among others listen to John Stephen discuss his First District candidacy.

Former Laconia City Councilor Judy Krahulec and Stephanie (Young) Howland discuss important matters as Robert Krahulec takes mental notes...

                                                                       Jenny and Joe Watson and Tom Brown talk politics...

Hopfgarten and Brown try to make sense of it all...

Holli Gorrell does not tell tall fish stories, she tells stray pig stories, of course...as Owen Howland and mother Stephanie, and Ian Hill listen intently...

Okay, you two want to start a club for young conservatives in your neighborhood...?
