SAVE THE DATE for the next General meeting of the Rapp Dems on March 12, 2022 at 10 am. We will meet in person at the Library, 4 Library Road, Washington VA. Doors open at 9:30 am for coffee and conversation. The meeting lasts one hour. There will be a Zoom option for those who want it, and a link will sent with a reminder on Friday. Please sign up to receive our emails, if you haven’t already.
NOTE: We need to approve the revised official RCDC By-laws. You received a preliminary draft last month to review. I’m attaching it again here. A vote will be called to approve the by-laws, including the amendment to Article VIII: Duties of Officers. It’s required that we have a quorum of RCDC members to vote on approval of the by-laws. So please do attend!I
We look forward to seeing you at our next general meeting on Saturday, February 12 at 10 AM via Zoom.
(We hope to meet in person again in April!)
We’ll be joined by Lynlee Thorne, Political Director of Rural GroundGame, to talk about today’s politics in rural Virginia. Find out more about this organization at https://www.ruralgroundgame.org
For December, instead of our usual monthly meeting on the 11th, the RCDC is having a brunch!
Note: because Covid numbers are creeping up in the county, we ask that attendees please be vaccinated.
When: Saturday, December 11, 2021, 10 a.m. to noon. Where: 70 Little Eldon Lane, Woodville VA 22749.
We’ll provide coffee, juice and egg frittata. Guests are encouraged to bring fruit, pastries, pancakes, donuts and whatever other goodies you might like.
Our next meeting will be Saturday, November 13 at the Rappahannock County Library (4 Library Rd, Washington). Doors open at 9:30 am for coffee and conversation. The meeting starts at 10 am. Masking is encouraged. For those who are not attending in-person meetings, this meeting will also be held via Zoom. Contact Chair Mary-Sherman Willis for the link, or join the Rappahannock County Democrats Facebook page.
Because Covid infection numbers are going down in the county, the 10-09-21 RCDC meeting will be a hybrid in-person/Zoom at the Rappahannock County Library (4 Library Rd, Washington). Doors open at 9:30 am for coffee and conversation. The meeting starts at 10. Masking is encouraged.
Immediately following the meeting, we’ll meet outside the library for our Get Out the Vote Door-knocking Launch. We’ll be focusing on the village of Sperryville, Washington, and Flint Hill.
So this is a call for volunteers! All you need is a cellphone and a car. It’s more fun with a partner. We’ll provide the lists and instructions. You’ll have the rest of the weekend to complete your list. And while you’re at it, pick up some signs and bumper stickers (hot off the presses!).
We’ll be canvassing every weekend until Election Day, November 2. Let’s get out the vote for McAuliffe, Ayala, Herring, and our own Doug Ward for Delegate—and Hold the Democratic Majority in Richmond!
As much as we loved seeing your faces in person at our last monthly General Meeting, due to the spike in Covid cases in Rappahannock, we’re returning to Zoomworld.
We’ll send a reminder the night before with the meeting agenda and the minutes from last month. If you’re not on our email list, please sign up using the tab on the upper right hand corner of this website.
Take care, stay safe, and we’ll get through this together!
