The Cordova Community Council and Rancho Cordova Chamber of Commerce want to revive the tradition of whistlestops - when candidates running for President of the United States would board a train and make short stops at towns across the country, giving speeches from the back of the train. Every election year, they host Campaign Whistlestop at the October Rancho Cordova Luncheon.

The candidates have been invited to give three-minute whistlestop speeches while stumping for your vote. It's fast-paced and informative, and for some local offices, it will be a rare chance to hear what the hopefuls have to say. The October Rancho Cordova Luncheon is on Friday, October 21st from 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. at Rancho Cordova City Hall, 2729 Prospect Park Drive. Lunch is $12 for members with reservations, and $20 for non-members and members without registrations. Register
