Message from the Chair
This Saturday we have an opportunity to attend the first Town Hall Meeting with Senator-elect John Kefalas, Representative Randy Fischer and Representative-elect Joann Ginal. A new era in Democratic representation is beginning for Larimer County. Come ask your legislators about the session ahead and hear all about committee appointments. Please see the details below and show your support for the new Democratic majority in the Colorado State Legislature.
The Larimer County Democrats Annual Dinner and Silent Auction will be held on March 30th, 2013 at the Fort Collins Marriott. We are starting to solicit nominations for our awards while the memories of this campaign season are still fresh. Take a minute to nominate that volunteer that you know helped us clinch this historic victory. Write us a note so that we recognize that special long term contributor with the 2013 Lifetime Achievement Award. If you think that someone has displayed innovation and changed the way we win in Larimer County, please nominate this creative volunteer for the Robin Murphy Davis Award by February 14th. Please send your nominations to [email protected] and watch our website in January for Silent Auction donation info and other dinner updates.
