Hello members and friends of Panhandle Democrats! Our annual banquet is coming up soon. It will be Friday, February 9th and will be hosted at the Holiday Inn located at 8231 W Amarillo Blvd, here in Amarillo.

Cocktails and socializing will be between 5:30 and 6:30. Dinner will follow after.

We will have several local candidates there introducing themselves as well.

Our Keynote speakers will be Nancy Thompson, founder of Mothers Against Greg Abbot, and Carla Porter from PAC 134.

You can call ahead to place your reservations or reserve your spot at our January meeting later this month. The deadline for reservations is January 26th, so please get your reservations in by then!

This would be a great time to renew your membership. As a reminder, membership dues are $30 for individual members and $50 for couples.

You can also mail your membership and/or reservation payments to:

Panhandle Democrats
PO Box 7232
Amarillo TX 79114

When you place your reservations, please let us know if you will be having chicken, beef, or the vegetarian dinner option so we can get a head count for the chef.

The cost for dinner will be $50 per person, or $75 for a sponsorship which covers your dinner and comes with a drink coupon, as well as recognition for being a sponsor. You can pay early at our monthly meeting or in person. We are taking payments up to the day of the banquet.

You can RSVP by calling or texting Kathy Thomas at (806) 236-4716, or John Early at (806) 672-8818.

We are also taking donations for our silent auction so if you have any items or want to make a gift basket to help raise money, you can contact Susan Stokes at (806) 282-0535 to arrange that.
