A few more details about Obama visit

The Rolla Daily News website today gave a few more details about the Obama visit to Rolla. The Rolla Daily News is notoriously unreliable so I'm not vouching for this information, but here it is:

The presumed Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama will make a brief townhall meeting in Rolla at 3 p.m. Wednesday at the Student Recreation Center, 705 W. 10th St.
The Student Recreation Center is adjacent — just west — to the Gale Bullman Multi-Purpose Building on the campus of Missouri University of Science & Technology.
The announcement of Obama’s visit was made at 1:18 p.m. Monday at the Rolla Democratic Headquarters at 905 Pine St., which was opened Saturday.
Tickets for the townhall meeting will be available from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. today at the headquarters.
Any leftover tickets also will be available 9 a.m. Wednesday. All remaining tickets will be passed out at the function.

Obama plans at least three stops Wednesday while touring rural areas of Missouri.
In Springfield, the Illinois senator will hold a townhall meeting at 10 a.m. at Glendale High School.
After the 3 p.m. townhall meeting at S&T, Obama will then head northeastward for a 6 p.m. barbecue at a park in the Washington County town of Union.
Sen. Claire McCaskill will join Obama on the campaign swing. The Missouri Democrat has urged Obama to campaign in smaller cities where Democratic presidential hopefuls are a rare sight.
