Fall Dinner Fundraiser 2019
The 2020 presidential election will be the most consequential of our lives. Join us to eat, hear from a well-known political commentator, and share ideas and stories about our visions for a return to sanity and people-focused government.
Join us for our 61st Annual FALL DINNER FUNDRAISER on Saturday, October 26. Start with a 5 p.m. Social Hour and Appetizers followed by dinner at 6 and our speaker at 6:30 p.m. We’ll also have a 50/50 Raffle and a Silent Auction. This year’s dinner will be at The Concordia Ballroom, 1129 La Crosse Street.
*** RESERVE ONLINE OR SEE BELOW FOR OTHER OPTIONS ***
Our menu: garden salad, lasagna (with or without meat, vegan and gluten freeVI options), bread sticks or garlic bread, cheesecake with fruit topping. Our caterer is ServesYouRight. You may bring an appetizer to share from 5 to 6 p.m. if you wish.
The suggested donation is $20 for adults and $5 for children six years old and under. We gratefully accept additional donations if you are able. If you cannot attend, please consider donating to help sponsor this event and future projects.
Funds raised from the dinner, the 50/50 raffle, the silent auction, and your donation will help us rent and furnish a local campaign office, train election volunteers, host local voter educational and motivational events, and more.
Our special guest will be Matt Rothschild, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, former editor and publisher of The Progressive magazine. (We have invited Democratic presidential candidates and Sen. Tammy Baldwin to speak. If a candidate or Sen. Baldwin accepts, we will reschedule Mr. Rothschild’s talk. We’ll post speaker updates, if any, at our web page or our Facebook page.)
