Calendar

As we conclude an exciting 2012 and look forward to 2013 and beyond, it will be nice for all of us to enjoy one another’s company. Our special guest will be Attorney General Jim Hood!

We will meet at the Flowood Public Library, located at Winners Circle Park in Flowood. The address is 103 Winner Circle, Flowood, Mississippi 39232.

There is no cost to attend, but your donation of $10, $20, or even $50 to our county party will be greatly appreciated and very helpful in our plans for the future. We will collect donations at the door or you may donate online at https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/rankindems.

We will hold a silent auction for an “Obama, Y’all” t-shirt and a convention button from the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Refreshments will be served.

Be sure to bring friends, family members, and business cards. This is an opportunity for us to network among friends and find new, innovative ways to engage Rankin County Democrats.

We look forward to seeing you!
