First Friday --
First Friday Friends,
It’s true: we have an amazing local ticket – the strongest in at least 35 years. Make no mistake about it, this is a difficult electoral environment for Democrats, but with this ticket and your support, be it financial and/or as a volunteer, we can swim against the tide and we can transform Kent County. This month’s First Friday is for all of our incumbent and challenger nominees for Kent County Commission
You are invited to the October First Friday Fundraiser for our Kent County Commission candidates:
Next Friday -- Friday, 17 October, 5:00 - 7:00 pm, in the Ottawa Tavern in the Waters Building

About First Fridays
First Fridays work like this: we'll supply the appetizers and a few drinks (two tickets for happy hour beer and wine), you give what you can ($100, $50, $25, whatever) to support some great candidates and causes.
First Fridays take place at the Ottawa Tavern in the Waters Building, located downtown at Ottawa at Pearl (we're getting so big that all 2010 events will be held in the back in The Bite).
