LW Democratic Club’s hospitality booth will be open every Tuesday in September, and every Tuesday and Thursday in October from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. The club anticipates that there will be many questions surrounding the upcoming election and wants to be as available as possible. For more information, contact Rachael Lehmberg at rlehmberg815@gmail.com.

The momentum behind the LW Democratic Club’s current fundraiser has been nothing short of inspiring, thanks to the generous community. The support drives real, tangible progress that directly backs local operations and can power endorsed candidates to victory. The fundraising campaign wraps up in mid-September, which means there is still time to make an impact. For more information, contact Bev Bender at Beverleybender@gmail.com.

Club members plan to hit the pavement canvassing for the upcoming election. The club plans for this year to be its biggest, most energized, and most effective door-todoor drive ever. The kick off canvassing meeting will be on Sept. 9, when volunteers will receive instructions and collect the paperwork necessary to get started. The two sessions will be held from 10:30-11:30 a.m. and 1:30-2:30 p.m., in Clubhouse 3. Those who are looking for a fun, meaningful way to make a difference, are encouraged to volunteer to canvass.

LW Democratic residents and those who have registered as no party preference will be receiving a postcard this year instead of the usual letter with candidate, proposition and voter information.
