February 25 6:00 p.m. Lincoln Day Dinner - Sunday
The keynote speaker will be Jason Lewis, a Twin Cities talk show host who is back in the Twin Cities market again and can be heard from 5:00- 7:00 PM on FM 100.3. He will undoubtedly have some post-election analysis which should be very interesting for all of us. You may attend this event one of two ways: 1) You may mail in the membership dues and Lincoln Day Dinner form attached to this e-mail along with your payment. In this case, your name(s) will be added to our guest list and you can just show up at the Valley House on Feb. 25; 2) If you would prefer, you may purchase an actual ticket from one of our executive committee members or officers. Tickets are $25 for a single and $45 for couples. The following individuals have tickets available for purchase: Lori Bernard, Dean Knudson; Dana Baker; Nancy Nasvik; Bob Ziller; Mary Louise Olson; Patti Cardenas. Please note, while we would greatly appreciate your membership in the county party, you need not be a member to attend this event. If you have neighbors, friends or family who would like to attend, we would be honored to host them. In addition, our annual caucus will be held on Saturday, March 3 at 10:00 AM at the community room of the Hudson library building, second floor. The building address is 911 Fourth Street. You must be a member of the party in good standing in order to be able to vote at this caucus. We encourage you to join today!
