Time to Meet, Celebrate And Work Together At The Washington County Dem Office

The following events will take place at the Washington County Democratic Party Office at 132 North Main Street in West Bend.

Wednesday, February 18th from 7:00 to 8:30 PM: Membership Meeting and Celebration

Join us as we celebrate THREE YEARS on Main Street.

During the meeting we will be discussing the upcoming spring elections, creating a plan to contact drop-off members (that is, members who have not renewed their membership), and planning our next Washington County Dem Party “actions.”

As we start our fourth year, we note and celebrate the fact that our office has allowed us to have a continual presence in our community. We have been able to host monthly forums, complete community service projects, host monthly membership meetings, host special guest speakers and be available to provide information.

Please consider making a donation to keeping the Wash Dem Office open. 

Donations can be brought to the office, mailed to our post office box, or made through Act Blue. See the information below:
