Yesterday at lunchtime, Republican candidate for Knox County Mayor Betsy Henderson spent time meeting with residents at Baker Boy’s Pizza in the Halls community. The informal gathering provided an opportunity for voters to speak directly with Henderson in a relaxed, local setting over lunch.

The event was hosted by Kimberly Black and Keith Foster, who welcomed attendees and helped facilitate conversation throughout the visit. Supporters and community members stopped by to hear Henderson share her vision for Knox County and to ask questions about the issues that matter most to them.
