Douglas Miller, founder and spokesperson for the “Take Back Bridgewater, Iowa” group, says its leadership, members and citizens are invited to a short meeting with 3rd District Republican Congressman David Young on Monday April 24, 2017 at 5-p.m. The meeting will be held in the basement of the Bridgewater United Methodist Church at 224 North Main Street, in Bridgewater.

Congressman David Young’s office staff responded to a letter sent by  Miller, asking for support and assistance in combating an ongoing drug problem in Bridgewater. The Director for Congressman Young said in his response to Miller, “We would like this meeting to be a starting point for a much lengthier conversation.”

The non-profit initiative “Take Back Bridgewater, Iowa” was formed to unite citizens with efforts to reduce ongoing criminal events as drug related activities increase in the small rural Adair County town.
