The Leelanau County Democratic Party is growing -- in
numbers, activities and ways to serve our community.  
The tremendous success we experienced in the 2008
elections has energized us to take on ever greater goals.  
Opportunities to contribute ideas, time and talent are
limitless.

Please consider becoming involved in:
  • Blue Tigers:  Putting our democratic principles
    into action, Blue Tiger volunteers help out with
    critical and rising community needs.  On January
    17 more  than 20 volunteers conducted a county-
    wide food drive to restock County food pantries.  
    We have adopted 4 miles of Leelanau County
    highways, work as ushers at the State Theater in
    TC, and are looking for more ways to serve the
    community in meaningful ways.
  • Programs:  Leelanau Dems hold periodic open
    meetings for our membership and the entire
    community on topics of interest and importance in
    the County  Help us explore programs and speakers
    that are exceptionally educational and informative
    for these meetings.  
  • Campaigns and Candidates:  What is a political
    party without great candidates to support?  We're
    fortunate in Leelanau County to have had many
    outstanding candidates run and be elected for
    local and state office, and we want to encourage
    many more people to follow in these footsteps.  
    We'll offer advice and support.  Contact us!
  • Events Committee:  Democrats enjoy a good
    time, especially when it's a good time for a good
    cause.  Beginning with our WinterFest in January,
    we will have events throughout the year.  A
    special highlight is our biennial Recognition Dinner
    on June 5 at the beautiful Eagle Ridge Conference
    Center in Peshawbestown.  The evening will
    feature outstanding speakers, a silent auction, fine
    food and the presentation of the prestigious David
    Viskochil Freedom of Speech award to a Leelanau
    Democrat who has done the most to advocate
    Democratic principles and values in the past year.
  • Other Committees:  Education, Membership,
    Publication, PR, and more.  Click here to check
    our Committee Chair and Officer list.  Go to the
    "Contact Us" page to send us a message.  We'd
    love to have your help!

Our representative democracy
works best if its citizens actively
participate in the marketplace
of ideas.  One of the most
effective ways to do this is by
writing letters to the editors of
newspapers.  Use the handy links

important issues.

Please remember to include your
