Friend,
You’re invited to join my wife, Elizabeth, and me at our 11th annual BBQ on Monday, August 18th. It’s time to smoke, sizzle, and save democracy.
The Hertel BBQ is a family-friendly fundraising event to help Michigan Democrats win up and down the ballot in 2026. Bring the whole family and enjoy some delicious food as we work towards a blue wave in Michigan.
This is (literally) the summer’s hottest event. I prepare all the food: pulled pork, gumbo, mac and cheese, and a side of saving democracy.
When: August 18th, 5:30 - 7:00 PM
Where: Hertel Home in East Lansing (Address will be sent upon RSVP)
We hope to see you there!
Chair Curtis Hertel
