CONWAY — U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas (D-1st District) spent the weekend on the campaign trail, canvassing the 1st Congressional District with 14 stops to kick off his re-election tour. Pappas, 41, of Manchester announced last Friday he plans to seek a third term in Congress.
Among his stops on Sunday was an outside gathering at Frontside Coffee Roasters in North Conway Village. The event attracted about 20 citizens.
