[link removed] [[link removed]]Hey John -
Thank you to everyone who came out to our joint Young Dem Pride Party with Alexandria and Falls Church Young Dems at Clare & Don's Beach Shack last Tuesday! We also had an awesome opportunity to hang out and chat with Senator Tim Kaine at a happy hour this past Tuesday. We'd love to collaborate with all these folks again and it was so great to see everyone safely in person. We hope to see you all at our AYD Homecoming BBQ [[link removed]] and Meet the Arlington Ticket [[link removed]] event this July!

It’s been a long year and we’ve missed seeing you all in-person! Before the general election season gets underway, come join us for our AYD Homecoming BBQ on Saturday, July 24th starting at 6pm. Location will be the rooftop of Crystal House, 2000 S Eads St, Arlington, VA. We hope to see old friends, current friends, and new ones as we welcome back AYD alumni, current members, and anyone that wants to join!
Tickets are $50 (over 35), $30 for Young Dems (35 & under), and FREE for dues paying members (and dues are ONLY $25 for the whole year).
BUY YOUR TICKET NOW [[link removed]]What to expect?
Food: It's a cookout! Burgers, hot dogs, and sides/desserts.
Drink: Open bar of beer, hard seltzer, and wine as well as an assortment of non-alcoholic beverages. Please feel free to bring your preferred beverages. You will not be asked to share with the class, but no glass, please!
We'll be keeping cool, catching up, playing corn hole and board games from an extensive library, having fun in a photo-booth corner with Polaroid cameras, and campaigning — that's what we do, after all — for high-school-style superlatives!
Want to sponsor? Sponsorship levels and opportunities to be announced soon, but we're always taking ideas! Please email Matt Royer at [email protected] [[email protected]] for details.
Questions? Email AYD Membership Director Annie Styles at [email protected] [[email protected]] .
