DEFENDING THE AMERICAN DREAM
Meet Mel and Help Her Campaign, Sept. 22, at Dolomite Lodge
Due to a change in circumstances, the PenDem Meet the Candidates event will shift to an interactive campaign work session with Mel. We have decided not to have the other elected officials and candidates come out to our gathering this coming Wednesday, 9/22.
We will use this opportunity to do some hands-on activities in support of Mel’s campaign, have informal conversations with her, AND we'll help our community.
We will . . .
- write postcards to registered Dems in LD 9 who typically come out only in presidential years to encourage them to get out this year for Mel.
- make phone calls to residents who have allowed lawn signs on their property in the past to see if they’ll host one of Mel’s signs.
- bring one or more items to donate to the Penfield Ecumenical Food Shelf. They are currently in need of jelly, applesauce, canned tuna, tissues, and dish soap. But anything non-perishable within its sell-by date is most welcome.
There will be snacks and drinks, the chance to talk about larger issues, AND . . . a prize for whoever writes the most postcards and whoever makes the most phone calls!
We ask that only fully vaccinated individuals attend, and that everyone wear a mask.
Please let us know if you’d like to join us by emailing: MeetGreet2021@penfielddemocrats.org
Same time & location: 7:00-8:30pm Wed. 9/22 at Dolomite Lodge in Veterans Memorial Park, Penfield
