John -
This Saturday, AYD will be hosting our Donuts & Donate: Clothing Drive from 10am to 1:30pm at Arlington Central Library. We're partnering up with USA Clothing Drive for this project. More details on this event below.
And next Saturday, August 5th, will be our annual Membership BBQ. It's a great event to mingle with fellow YDs, sip on refreshing beverages -- basically your all-around summer fun.
One final thing, as we head straight into the fall campaign season, keep an eye out for an update on AYD campaign plan and how you can help defend and expand our legislature seats in Richmond and in Arlington.
