PDF versionThis year, more than ever, we need every person, young and old (and everyone in between!) to do their part to continue the process of rebuilding and healing our country.
There are many ways to become involved and the Thurston County Democrats warmly invite you to choose one or more activities throughout the year to pitch in and help make a difference in 2010!
Besides renewing your membership or becoming a first-time member of TCD, please consider participating in one or more of the activities we have planned in 2010. Be sure to note these dates on your calendars and, if you’re not already on our email list, sign up today to be sure you receive the most current information about political events and activities in and around Thurston County.
February 27– Champagne Brunch – A tradition for over 48 years. This is an informal chance to have a delicious Saturday breakfast/brunch with champagne, and delicious food served by your local elected officials. At this event, local elected representatives are on hand to share what’s happening in their offices and the Champagne Brunch is often the first place you’ll learn about new candidates and campaigns for this election cycle. Tickets are only $25! Purchase tickets by visiting our ticket page.
Jefferson-Jackson Dinner – This event is a favorite for everyone. Each year we provide a scrumptious dinner prepared by the culinary students at South Puget Sound Community College. We always have a fabulous live auction that participants rave about for weeks afterward. We also award the coveted Democrat of the Year to someone who, in the previous year, has put their heart and soul into helping the Thurston County Democrats. It’s these volunteers that have helped TCD become known as the best county Democratic Party organization in the state! This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and it’s a fun and exhilarating evening for everyone attending. Don’t miss it!
Burger Booth – You’ve not had a burger until you’ve tasted our mouth-watering Demo Burgers™. The Burger Booth is another of our important fundraising tools but it takes many hands to make it work smoothly. Here are the events throughout where your help is needed: **Will be updated when information is available**
Summer Picnic – It’s always nice at Tumwater Park in August. Our picnics have been in sweltering heat and gentle rain but it’s always well sheltered by the trees so everyone stays cool and dry no matter what the weather decides to do. This is a nice family event with elected officials and candidates attending. (The date will be announced on our website and our email list.)
December Holiday Party – This evening is always delightful and an opportunity to sit back and celebrate our November wins! This event is not a fundraiser but a nice way to close out the year and reflect on all that we’ve accomplished. (The date will be announced on our website and our email list.)
We hope you’ll consider getting and staying involved in your local Democratic Party. We have made great progress in and around Thurston County but we have much work left to do. Will you join us? We hope to see you soon.
