Curious about what serving on a town council involves? We invite you to join us at the Democratic Breakfast on Saturday, June 10th, starting at 10 am. This event will be hosted at the Rowan County Democratic Headquarters, located at 1504 West Innes Street, Salisbury.

At this gathering, Pat Sledge, a two-term Alderwoman, will provide insight into her experiences while serving on the Spencer Town Board. Following her talk, there will be a Question and Answer session, offering you the opportunity to dive deeper into the realities of local governance.

Our breakfast event follows a potluck style, so if you’re able, bring a breakfast dish to share. We will open the doors for attendees at 9:45 am.

Though there’s no admission fee for this event, we appreciate a suggested donation of $10 per person to help defray our monthly costs. If you can’t attend but wish to support us, donations can be made at www.actblue.com/donate/rowandemocrats.

Come prepared with your questions and be open to considering whether you might want to run for a local town council yourself! This event could be your first step into public service.
