We are often asked "How can I get more involved?" If you are registered as a Democrat in Adams County, you are automatically a member of the Adams County Democratic Party. You are welcome to attend the monthly Executive Board meeting of the officers, captains and co-captains, and elected officials.
The Adams County Democrats has multiple social clubs for those who are looking for other ways to spend time with individuals who share thier values. These include the AdDems, AdFemDems, Latino Initiative, The Janes, and the Young Dems. For more information, click here.
Congratulations to all of our candidates and newly elected officials. Thank you to all of the volunteers and campaign workers who helped make the 2008 election a history-making event. We will all remember where we were on November 4, 2008. Please stay involved. Remember, "all politics is local."

Cherylin Peniston, for the arrangements made for Ad-Dems and friends who attended a rare evening visit to the state Capitol on November 5. We were permitted to view the Senate and House from the respective floors, and the group appreciated the Senate Hearing room where Sen. Pat Steadman joined Sen. Tochtrop in leading a committee hearing. Karen Dunn and Bob Knapp showed the importance of a citizen legislature with members dressed in costumes as they explained who can be members of the General Assembly. Bob told of the reasons for voting Democratic, including holding the vital chairmanship of committees within the Legislature. Refreshments finished the evening in the office of Rep. Peniston.
