Our monthly dinner meetings give Democrats and Progressive individuals a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, and hang out in an environment where it's not taboo to talk politics. We have a speaker each month, and our programs are always FREE. There is an optional full dinner available for the price of $25. The dinner is cooked onsite and includes appetizers, water and coffee, side dish and dessert. People are welcome to attend the meeting only at no cost. We ask that you RSVP below and select “0” for number of dinners needed.
The meeting begins at 5:30 pm for social hour, dinner served at 6:30 pm, business meeting at 7 pm, and guest speaker at 7:30 pm.
