Meeting summary

Here is a summary of the last meeting. Maria Luisa Alvarado our party’s candidate for Lt. Governor was our first guest speaker. She talked about her grassroots campaign and her plan to focus on education funding. We also had Vince and Mary Garcia who are on the steering committee of the Bexar County Democratic party. They spoke about the new leadership and new era of the county party. They also thanked the Young Democrats for stepping up and providing the first fundraising effort. This effort is a “letter” campaign that will be addressed to elected officials and donors asking them to become sustaining members. SAYD will fund the cost of the operation (paper, envelopes, postage, etc.). We also had AJay Frausto who is running for County Commissioner in Atascosa County. He is a young candidate and told us how he has beaten the “odds and nay-sayers” and got the party’s nomination. After the meeting we went to Pico de Gallo to enjoy food and Margaritas. Mmmm...Margaritas.
