Dear Dems and Friends,

Last Wednesday the Washington County Democratic Party voted to KEEP OUR OFFICE OPEN IN 2015!

We are very excited about all of the outreach this will allow us to do in the upcoming year. Please consider making a donation towards our office in 2015 so we can continue to offer important, community building events throughout the year. Thank you to everyone who has helped keep us open one more year!

Thank you very much for all of your time and efforts. I look forward to seeing you soon!

KEEP BRINGING IN THOSE SOCKS!

The Washington County Dems are doing a sock drive as part of a holiday event for West Bend High School students in need of “cheer.”

Jen Mesko, a special education teacher at West Bend High School, organizes the event in her “spare time” because she sees such a need amongst her students. She reaches out to her peers to ask them to nominate students they think might benefit from such an event and to ask for donations. She provides food and gifts for the students in attendance as well as an atmosphere of hope, promise and cheer.

This year the Washington County Dems have volunteered to do a sock drive for the students. Please donate NEW socks for this important event. You can either drop them off at the office or contact Tanya Lohr (414-467-8469) to have them picked up. The cut off for donations is Tuesday, December 2nd.

Thank you!

Dear Dems and Friends,

My heartfelt thanks to all the volunteers who came forward during the 2014 election cycle. You gave strength and personality to a message that must continue to be shared, regardless of election results. This was just one leg of a very important journey we are on together and I look forward to continuing down this path with you as we move forward once again.

It is important for us to get together at this point and talk about what happened during this election and put together a plan for our next steps moving forward.

I hope you will join us at our November Membership Meeting on Wednesday, November 19th at 7:00 PM to help shape these important discussions.

Thank you very much for all of your time and efforts. I look forward to seeing you soon!

——Tanya

Membership Meeting on Wednesday, November 19th

—from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at 132 North Main Street in West Bend.

Come join us in discussing the past election and help us brainstorm our plan moving forward.

We will have a guest speaker from the community. Jen Mesko, a Special Education teacher at West Bend High School will be talking to us about a Holiday celebration she puts on for students in need of some cheer in their lives. This is a project she takes on for a group of people in our community who are often overlooked.

We will have snacks and beverages afterwards!
