NRA Convention Coming In April

0

What may be Indy‘s biggest convention ever will arrive in April with the National Rifle Association‘s annual meeting.
Indy expects at least 65-thousand N-R-A members for the gun rights group‘s annual gathering.

The N-R-A signed the deal in 2010 and announced it to its members, but asked Indy‘s convention bookers to hold off on publicizing the event. Chris Gahl with VisitIndy says that‘s in keeping with the N-R-A‘s usual practice. He says the group initially had planned on a news conference, but reverted to asking for the P-R lid after travel plans fell through. He says the request is not without precedent, and hasn‘t prevented the agency from using the convention as a sales tool in trying to attract other big conventions.

Country stars Alabama, Sara Evans and Joe Nichols will perform for N-R-A delegates. The group hasn‘t announced its lineup of speakers yet. Last year‘s meeting in Houston featured former Republican  presidential hopefuls Rick Perry and Rick Santorum, former G-O-P vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton, conservative talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck, and rocker Ted Nugent.

Courthouse Closures Moves Goering Trial

The trial for a former Washington County Commissioner that was to have begun this morning in Washington Circuit Court has been delayed because the current county government has closed the courthouse due to the snow.

Due to the extreme weather conditions and the closing of the circuit court, Washington County officials closed the courthouse and circuit court this morning.

Jurors are to report at 9a Wednesday January 22 to the Circuit Court to begin the trial.

Mike Goering was arrested in March 2013 on charges of child molestation involving a Washington County girl under the age of 16.

Goering turned himself in to Washington County police officers.

Washington County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Roger Newton said the  accusations are shocking.

“It was reported by the victim’s family,” Newton said.

Goering was the director of the county’s solid waste district until his arrest.

Before that, he was the county engineer and served as a county commissioner and owned and operated a Maple Syrup farm and business and festival in Eastern Washington County.
