Happy Summer, everyone!
Please join us this month for some big events:
On July 13, our “Resistance Works” art show fundraiser opens at Articipate Gallery in Berkley from 3 - 5 pm. For your $10 donation, you’ll enjoy wine, cheese, and more than 50 pieces of powerful, inspiring art work from local artists in a variety of media. Click here to donate and sign up.
On July 17, our monthly meeting will be held at the TCEC (Tri-County Educational Center) in Royal Oak Township at 8711 Cloverdale, Ferndale. Park and enter on the south side of the building, off Garden Lane. Guest speakers will include Jeremy Moss, State Senator and candidate for the Congressional seat now held by Haley Stevens; Justice Richard Bernstein of the Michigan Supreme Court; and, I hope, another candidate whom we have not yet confirmed.
On July 21, the DSOC Red Cross Blood drive will be held at the Oak Park Community Center from 1 pm to 7 pm. This has been a regular public service event for us. There are plenty of available slots. Click here to sign up.
On July 26, our friends at the 11th Congressional District Dems will have their summer Big Tent BBQ from 11- 2 pm at Hess-Hathaway Park in Waterford. More info on their Facebook page. Click here to sign up for the BBQ.
And don’t forget the DSOC annual picnic on August 17 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm with food, fun (there’s a play area for the kids), and lots of interesting guests. We ask a $15 donation to support the event. Click here to RSVP and make a donation.
DSOC merch. Hoodies, sweatshirts, T-shirts, totes and hats are available in our online Store. Since we do not require payment of dues to join our club, the sale of our merchandise is one of our primary fundraising tools. Wearing DSOC merch not only shows you are a proud Democrat; it also promotes our club. These items also make great gifts!
