Save America Without DeLay Fun Family Festival Saturday, 5/14
Citizens from all over the Houston-Galveston area will gather for a fun family festival to draw attention to the unscrupulous brand of politics practiced by U.S. Representative and House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Sugar Land). An evening of fun, food, and information is planned! Confirmed speakers include: Richard Morrison, former Democratic candidate for Congressional District 22; former U.S. Representative Chris Bell; Lou DuBose, author of The Hammer; and Ivan Espinoza, a youth leader and founder of HDGE (Help Democrats Get Elected). Other highlights include True Majority's "Spank-Tom DeLay-Mobile", a grassroots activist training tent, and other fun games and activities for the whole family.
When: Saturday, May 14, 4:30-7:30 p.m.
Where: Tom Bass Regional Park #3, Pavilion #4, 15108 Cullen Road, Houston, TX 77047
Cost: Free
RSVP: www.democracyforamerica.com/DFHpicnic (for accurate food count)
Much more on the jump.
Free hot dogs with chili and cheese, chips, and drinks will be provided for everyone. We ask everyone to bring Desserts for Democracy to share and books to donate for the DFH “Books for Soldiers” community service project.
Democracy for Houston invites progressive clubs and organizations to set up a booth at our event. This is a great time to recruit new members. Due to strict finance laws, organizations will not be allowed to sell any merchandise at this event. To reserve a space, contact Melissa Taylor at mrtfordean@yahoo.com by Wednesday, May 11th.
(We will walk with "Spanky" in the Houston Art Car Parade on Saturday, May 14th. If you haven't seen "Spanky", go look here. Stay tuned for more details.)
For more information or to volunteer to set up, contact Leah Burris at democracyforhouston@hotmail.com , or visit www.democracyforhouston.org .
This is going to be a great day! The Houston Democratic Undeground May Meetup is coordinated with this festival as well as the Art Car Parade. You're invited! Bring your family!
