Election season is underway and Conexion Media Group hosted a very successful “Meet and
Greet the Candidates” on 14 August leading up to the primary elections in our area.
A large number of candidates from Okaloosa County attended and enjoyed the delicious food,
networking and fun time with us at El Paso Mexican Grill and Cantina in Mary Esther this
evening.
A huge thanks to Judy Capellan and the staff at El Paso for the delicious food and courteous
service.
We thank all the candidates, entrepreneurs, business, non-profit and civic leaders who joined us!
We also thank Reydel Hernandez of @Allied Marketing Insurance and Dr. Gerardo Discepolo of
New York LIFE for sponsoring the event!
Do not forget to vote on 5 November!
