Mike McIntyre & BHI
Please
attend a reception for the Honorable Mike McIntyre, Member of the United
States House of Representatives for our 7th District of North
Carolina. As a ranking Member of the House Committee on Armed Services,
Congressman McIntyre is very familiar with procedures the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers follows in mitigating beach erosion and other problems that
navigation projects can and do create for adjacent communities. He is
also very familiar with Bald Head’s specific challenges and has been our
ally in Washington for years.
The
reception will be held at the home of Adie Coy, 710 Shoals Watch near the
Shoals Club on Saturday, July 10 from 5:00 to 6:30. The cost to attend is
$150 per person. There are also sponsorships at levels of Platinum $2000,
Gold $1000, Silver $500 and Bronze $250 which cover attendance of a
couple. Please make checks out to: “Mike McIntyre for Congress”. You may

We
sincerely hope that you will attend and voice your concerns and love for
Bald Head Island.
