Ehrlich(s) to speak in Salisbury
It’s become an early February tradition around these parts, and once again the Wicomico County GOP delivers.
Our annual Lincoln Day Dinner will be held in the Bistro Dining Room of the Guerrieri Center (aka the Commons) at Salisbury University on Saturday, February 6th, with dinner served at 7 p.m. – the cash bar opens at 6:30. Tickets are $40 for individual, with couples at $75 and students $25. Sponsorships are also available and range from $15 to $50.
Featured guest speakers will, as noted in the title, be Bob and Kendal Ehrlich.
For information or tickets, contact Bob Laun at (410) 543-2116 – reservations must be made by January 27th and tickets are limited, so they’re sure to go fast!
That’s pretty much the extent of the “official” information. Now I can let you in on some inside stuff.
The Bistro has a listed capacity of 250, but normally we don’t set the room for quite that many since we need a little space for podium and presentation, plus a side table for campaign literature. And with this being an election year, many of the statewide candidates (such as Andy Harris) will buy themselves a block of tickets for their staff so it makes tickets just a bit more valuable. However, we also secure a larger room so it has the opportunity to even out in the end.
If you’re looking for a blow-by-blow account of the Lincoln Day Dinner, I’ve covered the last four so you can have some idea of who gets to speak. But before and after they speak you have the advantage of a limited group of competitors for their attention so it’s an opportunity to meet up close and personal the person who could be (or already is) your Delegate, Senator, or represent you in the halls of Washington. Obviously they’re present to impress upon those who care enough to attend because chances are this is the pool of leaders and volunteers they’ll draw upon as the campaign wears on.
Plus this year you may have the opportunity to hear an exciting announcement. Governor Ehrlich may decide prior to our dinner to jump into the fray for Governor, but then again he may be holding out to tell us as part of an announcement tour…you never know.
GOP political junkies would be well advised to attend. I’m writing my check tomorrow.
