Lake County Democrats Cancel Annual Event to Focus on Fire Relief Efforts

September 23, 2015

In light of the extraordinary tragedy our community faces, the Democratic Party of Lake County has cancelled our Annual Legislators BBQ (originally scheduled for Sunday, October 4, at the Senior Center in Clearlake).

The  devastation the Valley Fire has left each of us very personally touched. Like most in our County, every one of us can share a story. The scope of this disaster has profoundly impacted those we love and the community we cherish, and our priority can only be to help family, friends, and neighbors.

Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to everyone — sponsors, auction donors, local businesses, musicians,generous volunteers, and legislators — who are, now, helping our community get needed support.

We especially want to express our gratitude to State Controller, Betty Yee, for her generous relief efforts.

Sponsor contributions we had received will be donated to Lake County Risinghttp://www.lakecountywinegrape.org/ and the Redwood Credit Unions Valley Fire Relief  fund – https://www.redwoodcu.org/lakecountyfirevictims.

We invite you to join the members of the Lake County Democratic Party, to volunteer your time through North Coast Opportunities https://ncoinc.fundlyconnect.com/default.aspx.

And please ask friends to support these local organizations, as they do the challenging and vital work necessary to help our families and communities rebuild.

We look forward to your company, and happier times, next year.
