A Message from Our President:
The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), social distancing and having to quarantine ourselves for an undetermined amount of time are taking their toll on all of us. We wanted to make sure to reach out to our valued members and check-in on your well-being. Please feel free to contact us if you are in need of any assistance. We are happy to check-in, via phone or video, and see if we can connect you to the right resource for help.
We are doing our best to adjust to this unprecedented situation. At this point, we have postponed our brunch, canceled our spring gala and we are looking into ways to convert our April 15th meeting to a teleconference. We will keep you posted with any updates.
Keeping our local Democratic community safe and strong is of the utmost importance to us. I'm also listing some possible resources and volunteer opportunities.
Please take care of yourselves and we will see you soon.
Sonia Patel
President, Canton Democratic Club
We have links to some COVID 19 resources available here. Please send any links to additional resources to cantondemclub@gmail.com. Thank you!
Club Monthly Meetings & Social Event Hour
Monthly Meeting
Membership meetings occur the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 7pm-8:30 pm, followed by a social hour at a Canton establishment. Our meetings provide an opportunity to learn from a variety of speakers invited to discuss hot topics in all levels of government, plus updates from our Elected Representatives.
The Club provides us with an unparalleled chance to meet candidates and ask questions about their platforms. In fact, leading up to the 2020 primary elections, most Michigan candidates running for local, state and federal contests spoke at least once at our meetings or events.
Social Event Hour
The Social Event Hour occurs immediately following our monthly meetings from 8:45-10pm. We believe that our community has many great things to offer and we want you to come and experience them with us. Each month the Canton Democratic Club chooses a different Canton business to go to after our monthly meeting. This is an opportunity for club members, guests, volunteers, candidates and elected officials to gather in a less formal setting to get to know each other on a more personal level while trying the many different restaurants and gathering places throughout Canton Township. We advertise the locations of our events each month on our social media pages. Please join us at one of our monthly Social Event Hours. We look forward to seeing you at the next gathering!
Past Social Event Hours were held at:
JB's Smokehouse
Tony Sacco's Pizza
Authentikka Canton
Shakers Bar & Grill
La Shisho Palace
Buffalo Wild Wings
Basement Burger Bar
