On the ground

The town of Andes Democratic party is inviting all town residents to a “Meet the Candidates” night on Thursday, Oct. 18, at 7 p.m. at the Tremperskill Hunting and Fishing Clubhouse on Delaware County Route 1. Refreshments will be served.
Dale Cole and Fred Cubero, the party’s candidates for the two four-year seats on the town council, will be present to greet all potential voters. They will also discuss their positions on various issues and concerns that are important in the town, and will answer questions from the public.

All Democrats in the town of Andes have been contacted to attend a May 10 meeting at 7 p.m. at the Hunting Tavern. Out of nearly 200 postcards sent out, only five have been returned as undeliverable, so the town committee is hoping for a good turnout. The agenda includes the continued work of forming an Andes Democratic Club, and the recruitment of candidates for this fall’s town elections.
Town of Bovina Democrats will again be welcome, and members of clubs in other county towns are welcome to attend, to offer comments on how their clubs operate.

Democrats and all other Andes residents, who are interested in making a difference in the town, are invited to a meeting on Thursday, April 12 at 7 p.m. at the Cantina.

Discussion will include recruitment of possible candidates to run for town offices in this November’s election, and the possibility of forming a town-wide Democratic club. Interested Bovina residents will also be welcome.

Those planning to attend the meeting should leave a message at 845-676-4718. This should be done as soon as possible, so that the restaurant might be prepared to know how many are coming.

The full restaurant menu, complete with complimentary appetizers, will be available. Those interested, but unable to attend, may leave a message at the above number

The Andes Democratic Party will hold a special meeting on Thursday, March 8 at the Andes Hotel. The meeting will be open to all Democrats in the towns of Andes and Bovina, to those who are interested in becoming Democrats, or anyone interested in making a difference in the two towns. The hope is to form a Democratic club, to address issues and raise interest in the political and general welfare of the area. The Andes Hotel’s regular and tavern menus will be available, but those planning to eat should do so either before or after the meeting, as dining service will not be available in the meeting room. Call 845-676-4718 and leave a message.
