Letters to the Troops, San Gabriel YDA Mixer

Hey guys,
some update on upcoming events.

1 -- The Young Democrats and Young Republican clubs will be organizing a bipartisan drive to show our support for the troops! The plan is to leave collection boxes in every participating English class for letters and cards to sent to troops over sees. It'll likely start next wed. We're going to need everyone to make a collection box (simple wrapped shoebox with opening on top will do) and drop them off in J3. Details are not yet set so I will keep you guys posted!

2 -- The West San Gabriel Valley Young Democrats club is hosting a mixer on Thursday, Nov 12 at Plazza Place California (303 S. Mission Drive). Here is the info:
