Vance-Aycock

The North Carolina Democratic Party's biggest event of the year!

Grove Park Inn in Asheville, 7 PM.

Keynote Speaker: Former US Senator and war hero Max Cleland from Georgia

Also Attending: everyone who's anyone in North Carolina Democratic politics!

If you are interested in attending and representing Duke Democrats, please email Vijay. As this event is planned for in our budget, Duke Dems will be subsidizing the regularly $50 ticket, and you'll only have to play $10 (and gas). So that we can keep the cost low - we'll send the first four with interest. If more are aching to go we'll see if we can't wrangle more money. If fewer go - we'll pay for all of it.
