Holiday Party
We're delighted to announce our first Holiday Party and Toy Drive since 2019! — at the home of Leslie Bruce in Pt Loma — from 1:30-3:30PM.
Come enjoy the start of the holidays with your fellow Dems, and celebrate all of the great mid-term victories. We'll be serving drinks and appetizers.
There's no entry charge, but the Party is for members only. If you're already a member please let us know you're coming by Wed Nov 30.
If you're not yet a member, you can signup for 2023 membership. Pay your dues and confirm your Democratic credentials — online here.
Absolutely no pets allowed. Party is from 1:30-3:30PM.
With COVID-19 still at large we'll be having the event outdoors, so we've moved up the start time to 1:30PM to catch some sun and warmth. Be mindful of the weather report before heading over.
Please invite potential members to attend and meet fellow Democrats in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
The Club will be collecting unwrapped new toys for the Toy Drive of the Western Service Workers Association, and Brandon McDonald will talk about the great work that the WSWA does in San Diego.

WSWA Back to School Drive
The Club will be collecting unwrapped new toys for the Toy Drive for the Western Service Workers Association, and Brandon McDonald will talk about the great work that the WSWA does in San Diego.
WSWA needs 500 toys for their Holiday Toy Distribution by December 15! These toys for the parents of WSWA's low-income members will make a tremendous difference this year when inflation is at a 40-year high. Toys may be:
brought to the Point Loma/Ocean Beach Club holiday event
brought to WSWA's office 7 days/week 9am-9pm, or
but them online from the WSWA Holiday Toy Registry
WSWA's biggest need is always VOLUNTEERS! A great way to fill time after the election is to deliver holiday food boxes, volunteer on our Preventive Medical Benefit or organize for affordable water and utilities. Call today!
