NORWICH – Members of the community met with Norwich-native and local attorney Steve Natoli on Saturday, June 10 to discuss his candidacy for Norwich City Court Judge.

'Coffee with the Candidate' afforded Natoli an opportunity to connect with friends and neighbors, both old and new, to discuss the race in a casual, friendly environment.

It's reported that the event drew people of all ages, from Little Leaguers to retirees, who enjoyed treats and coffee at Wild Owl Café. 'Coffee with the Candidate' also coincided with the first week that candidates for elected offices across the state were able to begin collecting signatures to be on the ballot in November.

“My family and I are grateful for the outpouring of support and friendship that we have received since I announced my candidacy for Norwich City Court Judge only two short months ago," said Natoli. "Having been raised in Norwich and now raising our own children here, I am committed to giving back to the community that has contributed so greatly to my own life.”
