Some of you may have heard by now that DNC Chair Howard Dean is coming to Colorado next week to help celebrate the award of the Democratic National Convention in 2008 to Denver. Here’s the best part: you’re invited!
The DNC issued the formal press advisory this afternoon, announcing the details of the event, and how you can get your tickets to attend. Here’s that advisory:
Washington, DC - Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean will join Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, and Denver 2008 Host Committee President Elbra Wedgeworth in a community celebration of the Denver 2008 Democratic National Convention on April 12th. The event will be open to the public and tickets can be picked up beginning Monday at the Colorado Democratic Party and Denver 2008 Host Committee offices listed at the end of this advisory.
The 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver will help put the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee on the path to victory for the November 2008 election. An engaging celebration of the Democratic Party, the convention will showcase the Party’s vision for America, along with the values the party shares with all Americans. The community celebration on April 12th will be the kick off for a partnership the 2008 Democratic National Convention will build with the Denver community to hold a successful convention.
