Perry to headline New Hampshire dinner

(CNN) - Republican Texas Gov. Rick Perry will deliver the keynote address at the New Hampshire Cornerstone Dinner in October, according to the group.

The October 28 awards banquet in Manchester is a large fundraising event in the first-in-the-nation presidential primary state.

The announcement comes as the three-term governor continues to consider a run for the White House. He has said he will make a decision at the end of the month when Texas wraps up legislative business.
