The Best Political Meetings for Young and Old Alike --- MoCo Young Dems


If you like to attend meetings where you learn all about politics in MoCo and Maryland, the best place is the Montgomery County Young Dems (MCYD).

They meet at the Silver Spring Civic Center and their website is http://www.mcyd.org/  They post information about their meetings on Facebook and you can ask to be on their email list.

Meetings, such as the one tonight, often include elected officials and others on panels that are absolutely wonderful. Tonight they had Delegate Anne Kaiser and Eric Luedtke, and Quincy Gamble from Brown-Ulman for Maryland. They gave the audience great insights into key elections throughout Maryland this November, the kind of information you don't usually hear about anywhere but at MCYD meetings.

If you're not officially "young" don't worry. My wife and I are retirement age yet we have never felt more welcome than when we attend MCYD meetings, which we do whenever we can. It's a fun group and very effective in Dem politics, and we learn a great deal at every meeting. I encourage everyone to consider supporting MCYD in every way you can.
