Letter From the President
Dear Hells Kitchen Democrats,
This has been an incredible year for our club and for our party. I am so proud of the work that each of you have put in to making HK Dems a success.
This year your hard work paid off in ridding NY of the IDC, electing progressive candidates, and growing a movement in our community that began almost 2 years ago.
As we enter 2019 I encourage you all to stay active, spread the word, and engage in the club by bringing to us programing, events, and candidates you want us to highlight and support.
In 2019 we will be adding committees and holding panel discussions about issues that matter to you, our members.
Remember on Jan 3 we have our meeting and January 10th we will be having a special presentation with a live podcast taping. We are looking forward to seeing you all there.
Our club elections are just around the corner in February at our Annual Meeting. We encourage you to run for a position and join our executive committee.
The last 2 years serving as Founding President of HK Dems has been a true honor and privilege. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to serve.
As we grow as a club my role will transition from being president to being a member of the executive committee as the founding president.
I look forward to continuing to work with all of you to grow our club and our movement and I look forward to working with whoever becomes our newly elected president and executive board.
Have a happy and safe New Years.
In Gratitude,
Marti Cummings
HK Dems President
