STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. — Sen. Mark Warner will visit Stafford County on Friday to talk business.
During a trip through the region, Warner will stop for a roundtable discussion at Gari Melcher’s Home and Studio in Falmouth between 3 and 4:30 p.m. Friday.
The Stafford County Economic Development agency is notifying businesses in the area about the event and stated there will be a brief opportunity for Warner to meet with local business leaders for a casual conversation.
“In order to make the meeting as phenomenal as possible and best highlight the diversity of the local business community, Stafford has also extended this opportunity to all of the other Fredericksburg Region localities in the hope that we can create a larger picture of Fredericksburg’s robust business characteristics,” stated the Stafford County EDA spokeswoman Bethany J. Miller.
After serving as Virginia’s 69th governor from 2001 to 2006, Warner went on to win a Senate bid after longtime Virginia Senator John Warner (no relation to Mark Warner) announced he would not seek reelection.
Warner is not seeking reelection this year.
