Where and when is the Stillwater event?

Echoing Karl's request for details on the Stillwater stop. I just checked the Congresswoman's campaign website and found no details about her local bus tour schedule posted there, on Facebook, or the campaign's Twitter ID.

The fact that she bought/rented a bus for a trip across her suburban district shows me everything I need to know about the respect she has for campaign contributions from the voters of her district. This is classic Michelle Bachman. All show, little substance.
