I was excited that Rep. Dan Zwonitzer had dropped out of the U.S. House race. He has little recognition across the state and he wouldn’t have fared very well come August 19.

The first week of June will see Gillette getting much attention from oil and gas energy producers, suppliers, and merchants. Not only that, a growing energy convention nine years in the making will be transitioning and expanding its scope.

In 2008, exhibitors and panel discussions from conventional Natural Gas and Oil Production will be added to showcase their new and innovative energy technologies. Continue Reading »
