Message from the Chair

After a seasonal respite from the heat, the weather will return to perfect for the Larimer County Democrats Annual Picnic this Saturday afternoon. From 4:00 to 7:00 pm, our volunteers will be serving our local produce, some local brew, and the standard grilled summer fare at our end of season event in Dian Sparling's back yard. Doc Turbo will be delivering a special batch of his renowned BBQ, just for you. Please join us for some personal time with our hardworking Larimer County candidates. You can save five bucks by going to www.LarimerDems.org and picking up your early bird tickets as soon as possible. The best news: It's not going to be mid-nineties on the day of the picnic.

--William Russell

 

"The sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality."
