Dear DuPage Dems,
I really must send out a big THANK YOU to the Gala Committee for all the work they have been doing for the past 2 1/2 months. This was more of a task than usual as it followed RIGHT on the heels of one of the biggest elections ever in DuPage County. Their task was a bit arduous but they have come through with flying colors.
Please look for these folks at the Gala (they will have ribbons on their name tags) and thank them for this extra dose of volunteerism!!
See you on Feb 8th!
Bob Peickert, Chair DPDC
ONCE AGAIN, please take the time to either mail in your check
for the Presidents' Day Gala to arrive by Feb 2nd or go to our on-line
contribution link...better yet, stop by the office on Monday from 10-8 p.m.
