Hello Everyone,

I hope everyone is excited for the Democratic Presidential Debate coming to Wisconsin!

Last week, I continued making calls to invite people to our upcoming events that are listed below. I have done a lot of posting notices at UW-Washington County to recruit college students for a “College Dems/Young Dems Group.”

If you know of any interested college students or young adults in the area who might be interested in helping to get this group started, please have them contact me—or give me their contact information!

We want to get as many young people involved as we can! 

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at autumnlinsmeier@gmail.com or 920-973-5521.

Best,

Autumn Linsmeier

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

Tuesday, February 9th, 6:30 to 8:00 PM: “Tim Cullen Book Talk”

Former State Senator Tim Cullen will be coming to the office to discuss his new book: “RINGSIDE SEAT – Wisconsin Politics – the 1970s to Scott Walker.”

Senator Cullen will be available to sell and sign copies of his book both before and after his presentation. The proceeds for book sales will fund scholarships for local kids of color who pursue teaching in Janesville.

 

Wednesday, February 17th, 5:30 to 6:30 PM: “College Dems / Young Dems Discussion”

Please invite any young people, between the ages of 18-to-25, who might be interested in joining this group. (There will be pizza and soda!)

There will be specialists on hand to discuss the importance of getting young people involved in politics—especially here in Washington County. Those experts include:

Phoenix Rice-Johnson (Chair of College Democrats of Wisconsin) (joining us by Skype)

Ben Stepanek (UW-Oshkosh Chair)

Masha Anderson (UW-Milwaukee Chair)

If you have questions or can provide contact information for potential 18-to-25 year-old guests to invite, contact Autumn Linsmeier at autumnlinsmeier@gmail.com or 920-973-5521.

 

Wednesday, February 17th, 7:00 to 8:00 PM: “Monthly Membership Meeting”

At this meeting we will have a silent auction for the “Obama Banner” that used to be on the back wall in the office, as well as drawing names to give out some of the other posters that have been hanging around the office.

We will also have a potential candidate for the 24th Assembly District coming to speak.

There will also be CAKE to celebrate our 5th Year at our Wash Dem Office on Main Street in West Bend!
