President Barack Obama is scheduled to appear in Richmond at an early morning grassroots event in beautiful Byrd Park at The Carillon on Thursday, Oct. 25.

If the weather holds up while the autumn colors are peaking, this is sure to be a very photogenic event for the president, much to the delight of every Facebook user with a smartphone.

The park is located at 1300 Blanton Avenue in Richmond.

People will be allowed in starting at 9 a.m. Remember, drivers will have to contend with morning rush hour in the city.

The event is free and open to the public, however an e-ticket or paper ticket is required for entry. One ticket per person will be distributed to members of the public on a first-come, first-served basis, according to the campaign.

Tickets are available online at http://va.barackobama.com/. Members of the public can also pick-up tickets starting Tuesday, Oct. 23 and continuing Wednesday, Oct. 24 from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m., at one of the following OFA offices:
