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
—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. See “Sock Drive” below to learn about what the Washington County Dems are doing for this holiday celebration.
We will have snacks and beverages afterwards!
The Washington County Dems will be 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 at the office for this important event. Please keep in mind that that these socks are for high school students—they often wear funky, fun socks. We will have a bin at the office for sock donations. Please bring a pair or tow to our meeting on Wednesday or to your office shift or drop them off during office hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Friday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM and Saturday from 8:00 AM to Noon.
