On the weekend of June 27 and 28, we are having a Big Australian Democrats Get Together.
We would like you to get together with other Australian Democrats in your area, as well as those interested in the party, just to get to know each other and celebrate the start of the rebuilding process.
We are hoping that you can attend one of the events happening all over Australia. Getting together and just knowing who the other Australian Democrats are in your area is a very important step in bringing life back to the party and getting our branches active again. This weekend is not intended to be a collection of serious 'where are we going' type meetings – it's just some fun and an excuse to get together.

Watson (Fed) Canterbury and Lakemba (State) issues). Some light finger
food will be provided, also some Wine/beer/Coffee/Tea/Soft Drink etc.
will be provided, but bring your own if your needs are exotic(!)
RSVP:
open to all Australian Democrat Members, Associate members, Supporters
and recently lapsed members. I would prefer the ‘crowd’ more local than
less local, but inner city to inner west / inner south west? I really
do need to know how many Democrats to expect, as I would like invite
some representatives of local causes and clergy to share their
knowledge of local issues with Democrat minded people.
