Staff report
The Tribune-Star

TERRE HAUTE Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama will make a stop in Terre Haute on Saturday to discuss with Indiana families his plan to jump-start the American economy.

Sen. Obama’s Indiana campaign announced Thursday that he will return to the state to conduct a “Change We Need” discussion at the Wabash Valley Fairgrounds, 3901 South U.S. 41 in the 4-H Arena.

Doors open at 11 a.m. and the program begins at 12:30 p.m.

The event is free and open to the public, however, tickets are required. Free tickets will be available beginning at 9 a.m. todayat the Indiana for Change Terre Haute Office at 509 Wabash Avenue.

Adults are limited to two tickets per person, and children under 16 may pick up one ticket.

Obama intends to outline his plans for the economy and to discuss how he intends to provide middle class tax relief. The visit comes on the heels of the recent Democratic National Convention, where Obama accepted the nomination of the party.

Obama made a stop in Terre Haute in April during the primary election season, when he conducted a town hall meeting at the Terre Haute North Vigo High School gymnasium.
