Tri-City Democrats – Friday, April 10, 6:00 PM
Greetings fellow Democrats!
The weather is turning, so let’s have a picnic at the Farm – 4501 W Lattin Ct, West Richland, WA! There’s some chance it will be cool, but we’ll have a fire pit and patio heaters and blankets to take the edge off. Bring a hoody! We’ll gather on April 10 at 6pm. Come gather with like-minded folks and share some fellowship, food and beverages. Bring a dish to share, and Tri-City Democrats will provide utensils and plates, and napkins. We’ll have the donation box available for those who care to financially support the group.
We have scheduled the ‘Save our Wild Salmon’ group to come talk to us about the Snake River Dams and we will have ‘Hate Has no Home Here’ signs available.
