Our general business
meetings are on the 2nd Tuesday of the month and run from 7:00-8:30pm. Business
meetings will be held at Nugget Marrket in 4500 Post StreetEl Dorado Hills, CA95762. Please feel free
to stop by, even if you can’t make it by 7:00pm! After the meeting,
people usually stick around and socialize.
A variety of activities
take place at business meetings.
Guest Speakers: To assist us in
learning about local Democratic Party politics, EDCYD invites current
politicians as well as candidates to come and speak at our meetings. This
is a great opportunity to hear about their background, their positions on
the issues and to ask questions.
Endorsements: EDCYD endorses
Democratic Party candidates. Current EDCYD members are able to vote in the
endorsement process. Once a candidate is endorsed, the club encourages
members to become active in endorsed political campaigns by volunteering
to precinct walk, phone bank, etc.
Information about Current
Legislation and Propositions: EDCYD hosts guest speakers as well as
tapping into the expertise of our membership to provide brief
presentations on current legislative and ballot issues.
Opportunities for Political Action: Representatives of
local and national political campaigns often reach out to EDCYD with information
about how to get involved in current campaigns.
Community Service: One of the
important aspects of the club is to promote community service. During
business meetings, club sponsored volunteer opportunities are discussed.
Networking: So you live in El DoradoCounty and you sometimes
wonder if there are other liberal people out there. Stay after the meeting
for the opportunity to engage in conversations with politically
like-minded young Democrats!
