Reminder: Politics on the Rocks tonight with David Schweikert and Wes Gullett

Politics on the Rocks is pleased to announce that United States Congressman David Schweikert and Phoenix Mayoral Candidate Wes Gullett will be speaking at our next free networking event on Tuesday, September 27th 6:00 PM at "The Mint" located at 7373 E Camelback Rd. in Scottsdale, AZ. Part restaurant, part ultra-lounge, The Mint occupies a 7,000 square foot space that was previously a bank, giving inspiration to the name. In a nod to its past, The Mint’s centerpiece is the original vault door, while updated touches evoke a Hollywood Regency design influence.
