Youth groups to hold political forums with Norwich mayoral, council candidates
Norwich — The Young Voters Society at Norwich Free Academy and the Norwich NAACP branch Robertsine Duncan Youth Council will host three political forums in the coming weeks featuring Norwich mayoral, City Council and school board candidates.
On Tuesday, the five mayoral candidates will take questions from NFA students in a forum running from 8:45 to 10 a.m. at Slater Auditorium. This event is not open to the public because it will take place during a school day.

A City Council candidate debate will take place at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Ensemble Room of the Sidney Frank Center, and a Board of Education debate will be held at 7 p.m. Oct. 26 in the Community Room at Kelly Middle School.
The two evening debates are open to the public.
