TALLAHASSEE (WWSB) - President Trump is planning to visit the Florida Panhandle next week.

His campaign announced that he will hold a campaign rally in Bay County on Wednesday, May 8th.

Trump is scheduled to appear at 7 p.m. Central time at the Aaron Bessant Park Amphitheater in Panama City Beach.

While Northwest Florida votes heavily for Republican candidates, Trump also will be visiting a region that is struggling to recover from Hurricane Michael.

Large parts of Bay County were devastated by the Category 5 storm last October.

State and local officials are calling for more federal assistance.
