ARE YOU READY
for
UPCOMING ELECTIONS?
|
|
|
Municipal Elections will be held for Wilkesboro and North Wilkesboro on November 2nd. Voter turnout for non-presidential years without any national or state races is usually VERY low and we need every Democrat who lives in those two towns to come out and vote. So do a little homework in advance to be sure your voting experience is a good one. Voter registration deadline is Oct. 8, 2021 for municipal elections being held on Nov. 2, 2021. Share this with family and friends:

Yes, Wilkes is a county offering mail in ballots for municipal elections - Oct. 26, 2021 is the deadline for civilians to submit an absentee ballot request form for the November municipal elections, but note that the ballot MUST be returned by Nov 2nd.

APPLE FESTIVAL - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Oct 2nd, 2021
|
|
We will need folks to help set up, folks to help take down, but more importantly, folks to work in the booth and collect donations, sell t-shirts, and hand out literature for those interested. We will have shifts of 2 hours each, and you will never work alone.
The booth this year will be right in front of our headquarters which will be easier on the set up and take down, and a bit shadier in the afternoon. Please sign up if you can help.

As America finally ends the war in Afghanistan, a Wilkes Vietnam Vet recalls his final days in country, and investigates what we've learned in this powerful blog post.

"A significant date, 03 September, for it marks the anniversary of my coming home from Vietnam. There is more to it than just hopping on a jet and kissing the sh*t goodbye.
No matter what the day was, at 0600, my feet hit the floor. This day was different; it was my wake up day...my last in Nam.."..Click HERE to read more
