A few words from the Chairman

Hello everyone,
 
I hope you all are having a wonderful Holiday Season.  We have a lot to be thankful for here in the North Country.  With Darrel and Addie's historic wins we are poised for a rebirth of the Jefferson County Democratic Committee. With your help, the coming year will be an incredible one. 
 
We have a number of programs that we have intitiated in the recent past such as "Discover the Meaning" Campaign; where Democrats donate their time and resources for charities and communtiy service. This is a way of keeping in touch with other Democrats and keeping in touch with our ongoing goal of  improving our community.  Our newest program is the Jefferson County Blog (http://www.jeffersondemocrat.org/).  A core group of our Committee has been hard at work supplying topics that are sometimes overlooked by local media.  The Blog is also just a great way for us to connect as North Country Progressives.  Please take a look at the web site and feel free to email if you have something you'd like to see on the blog.
 
Finally, I want to thank you for all your help over the last few years, it's been a pleasure working with you.   Many of us have seen truly trying times as North Country Democrats.  For many years it felt like our efforts were sometimes wasted or hopeless. Yet in the words of the great Nelson Mandela "It always seems impossible until it's done".  Well, we've done it!  You can all be very proud of the hard work you have done for our party and for the great contributions you have made to our communitiy.  It's been my honor to work with all of you and I wish you continued success in the year to come. 
 
All my best,
Sean M Hennessey
Chairman Jefferson County
Democratic Party.
