The Democratic Club board announced that only two more membership meetings (in April and May) will be held via Zoom. There will be no Zoom meetings in June or July, with the hope that face-to-face meetings can resume no later than Aug. 18.
The program for the club’s April 21 membership meeting that originally had been scheduled to focus on the theme “Stop the Recall of Gov. Newsom” has been rescheduled to the May 19 meeting. In its place, the meeting on April 21 will feature a presentation by Pete Hardin, the Democratic candidate running to replace the current Orange County District Attorney. All Leisure World Democrats and supporters are invited to attend.
Members or supporters who are not already on the contact list to receive the club’s electronic newsletter should email lwsbdemocraticclub@gmail.com for the login information for the April 21 meeting. Club members without email addresses who want to join the meeting should call (562) 412-0898 for information on how to participate by phone. The meeting will begin promptly at noon with the speaker first on the agenda.
Hardin is a former judge advocate in the U.S. Marine Corps, a deputy district Attorney, special assistant United States attorney, and one of Southern California’s leading litigators. He is running a campaign to enhance safety, heal victims, and to restore integrity and professionalism to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
The Democratic Club board continues to make plans to open a booth outside Clubhouse 6 on Tuesdays from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. The booth’s opening day will depend on the recruitment of volunteers. Anyone interested in participating in this effort should contact board member Rachael Lehmberg at (562) 340-9816 for details.
