LET'S GET READY TO...PICNIC
Don't Put the Picnic Stuff Away Yet
San Diego Democrats for Equality Picnic
We had a great time last year with friends, food, drink and volleyball, and this year should be even better. Plan to join us for the Club's annual picnic, September 7, Noon - 3:00 PM.
We'll once again be getting together at the Morley Field area of Balboa Park (Upas St at Texas). We'll be the ones with the big San Diego Democrats for Equality banner. You can't miss us.
The Club will provide drinks, plates, cups, utensils. Please bring a dish to share - and you should probably bring a lawn chair and some sunscreen. More Info.
Join us. You'll be glad you did.

Club Elects New Board Member - Seeks One More
At our August meeting, the Club elected Lilian Arreguin to our Board of Directors. Lilian lives in Oceanside and provides some much needed North Co. perspective to our Club's leadership. She also brings energy and a willingness to step in and get the stuff done that needs to be done. We hope you will congratulate her on her new office. According to our By-laws, there is still one more vacancy on the Board. We'd love to have you on the team as we move into the Club's 40th anniversary year. If you are interested in election to the Board, contact us HERE. __________________________________ AIDS Walk San Diego Join the Dems for Equality Team San Diego Democrats for Equality will once again be walking to raise awareness - And FUNDS - to combat AIDS.
