From a release we received this morning…

Plaquemines Parish President Billy Nungesser will be the featured speaker at the Ascension GOP Roundtable, sponsored by Ascension Republican Women. The Roundtable is scheduled for Tuesday, June 14th at Noon at Frank’s Restaurant, 17425 Airline Hwy. in Prairieville.  (11:30: Registration and socializing, 12:00: Meeting)

Following the BP oil spill of 2010, Nungesser, whose feisty and outspoken comments resonated across the region and gained him national attention, hasn’t been afraid of taking on everyone from big oil to big government. His voice has often echoed across the Gulf louder than the bigger power players.  Nungesser comes to Ascension to speak about the oil spill, then and now. 

Cost for the lunch (choice of three entrees) is $13 (drink, tax and gratuity included). Guests are welcome. Reservations are recommended by calling 225-644-5728.  E-mail: ARWrUS@aol.com or postmaster@ascensiongop.org

Note: In keeping with ARW’s on-going community service project, the St. Theresa Food Bank, members and guests are asked to bring non-perishable food items to this event.
