This is not intended as a partisan political message.But i would be remiss if i did not let you know, and decide for yourself what you may, about a special opportunity to say thanks to our long-time County Councilman Tom Dernoga, this coming Saturday, March 7.
As recently demonstrated again, Tom has always supported our local communities without partisan bias, vis-a-vis local violent bars (Amazon, J's Cafe, Sweet Moon Grille) or to ensure community involvement in decisions about local real estate and business development (Montpelier Hills, Brick Yard, Villas at Laurel, Victoria Falls, and opposing the abrupt closing of the Giant Food store), etc., as well as other people-friendly policies county-wide..
Because of term-limits, Tom's time on the County Council is coming to an end. This party gives us an opportunity to celebrate his accomplishments on our behalf and help him prepare to continue in some other local elected government service. Tom's Council District 1 is big, but as you see on this map, this event is only an 8-mile drive from South Laurel.
Donations are discretionary, of course.
So for your information, i am enclosing below the official event announcement
The invitation says to RSVP, and that is important, but i'm going to go out on a limb and say Please Come Even If For Some Reason You Were Not Able to RSVP
