On April 27, the LW Democratic Club officially reopened its voter registration booth in the parking lot outside Clubhouse 6. Ten club members participated in the opening day celebration. A special thanks goes to Dave Silva, who coordinated setting up the tent. Due to concern for the wellbeing of visitors, the volunteers staffing the booth wore masks even though they had all been fully vaccinated. They also had pens in a bottle marked “clean pens” and made sure each pen was used only once.
In addition to voter registration information, visitors to the booth had access to copies of the club’s latest electronic newsletter, membership application forms and the club’s newly updated brochure.
Under the leadership of board member Racheal Lehmberg, the Democratic Club’s booth will be open every Tuesday from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Volunteers in- terested in assisting in this effort should call Lehmberg at (562) 340-9816.
