Where were you on November 9, 2016? It’s one of those days that will forever live in all of our memories. It is also the birthday of El Dorado Progressives!
On November 9, 2016, the day after the election, most of us were feeling confused, anxious, apprehensive, powerless, and maybe even isolated. Then we found each other, and we found our voice and our power. Well, it’s been a year so our next meeting, on Nov. 12, is a party: EDP First Anniversary Celebration Potluck Fundraiser.
We have much to celebrate on our journey. Bring your favorite potluck dish, and your memories of the past year to share! If you have pictures or video of events that EDP has been involved in, please upload them here, or send by email to eldoradoprogressives@gmail.com by October 20th, so that we can put them into our slide show in time for the Potluck. Bring your favorite stories of shared activities. Bring some new friends, too! We are offering tickets through Eventbrite for this fundraising event.
SPACE IS LIMITED TO THE FIRST 180 RESPONDENTS, SO PLEASE GET A TICKET BY CLICKING THE EVENTBRITE LINK.
This is a potluck, so you will need to bring a dish to share. EDP will provide non-alchoholic beverages. ALSO, IF YOU CAN, PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN PLATE, GLASS, AND CUTLERY--WE ARE TRYING TO MINIMIZE THE USE OF DISPOSABLE ITEMS TO PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT!
Potluck arrangements
