Palos Township Democratic Organization

05/12/2026

We are excited to invite you all to our June 16th Membership Meeting (6:30-8:30PM at Prime Time Restaurant in Hickory Hills). At the meeting we will have two special guest speakers to talk about the importance of running for local office and how to get prepared to do so. Even if you are not interested in running for office, your participation is helpful for us in brainstorming to find people who might be interested at some point. Our organization is committed to assisting new Democratic candidates and this is our first event to support that goal. This will be an interactive session and is sure to be interesting and fun!
