Local Democratic Events in Marion County

[SpeedwayDemocrat]

Each week, the Marion County Democratic Party releases a list of the upcoming Democratic events in Central Indiana. As a service to our local DUers, I am posting that list here and will try to keep you all updated on future happenings. As I am a key organizer of the Wayne Township Club's events, I will be at the 4/11 and 4/24 events, and would welcome the opportunity to meet other Indiana DU members.
Hope you will all chose to get involved where you can!
