AADC Fall Fundraiser – A Big Success!
By Mary Helen Fein
The 2022 AADC Fall Fundraiser was a great success. This year we held the event outside at Auburn Recreation Park. Over sixty people attended, providing the club with generous ticket revenue that can go to support our candidates in the upcoming election. In addition members donated over 45 items to our silent auction, more than doubling our revenue for the day. Many dedicated members worked hard on the event. The committee met for many weeks to get everything ready, under the excellent guidance of event coordinator Noelle Filice-Smith. Arleen Harrison was in charge of the silent auction, with a little help from previous year’s auction mavens, Leslye Janusz and Mary Helen Fein. Rosalie Wohlfromm and Constance Alexander managed the entryway, tickets and finances. Everyone enjoyed the taco bar and cookies. AADC President Terry Rodriguez offered his truck for large-item pick up and delivery, while Dave Deckman and Stu Clancy helped to set up the sound system so that everyone could hear our fine candidates and other speakers. Thanks to all who attended and to all who donated Once again AADC had a great event.
A Message From Our President Terry Rodriguez, November, 2022
Democracy, The Final Stretch
Democrats are at an important point in our history. Auburn Area Democrats and all those who support our model of Democracy have a responsibility to “keep it.”
In addition to serving as AADC President, I am a member of the Placer County Democratic Party Central Committee (PCDCC), and I am also an Assembly District 1 Delegate to the California Democratic Party (CADEM). In fulfilling these roles, I saw it as my responsibility to emphasize the importance of supporting our candidates. While I participated myself, I also tried to communicate to the AADC membership just how important this is. I asked our membership to step up and support our candidates and local measures.

AADC Loses Cherished AADC Member, Millie Livingston
By Leslye Janusz
For AADC members who may have missed an earlier announcement, we have lost one of our most cherished members, Millee Livingston. She passed peacefully at Mercy Hospital, San Juan, on Friday, September 9, just days before her 92nd birthday.
Millee was an active member of AADC since 2004 and served as the vice president for a year during the club’s early years. She would always volunteer to help the club with fundraising, in particular she was known for raising hundreds of dollars each year with raffle tickets for a $50 lei at our annual fundraiser. The club is considering arranging a scholarship in her name to continue her legacy of promoting peace and justice. READ MORE
Indivisible Auburn
By Pat Ferguson
Indivisible Auburn started in 2017 after the election that put Donald Trump into office. The Auburn Area Democratic Club provided the leadership and seed money to get us started. Eventually we became an independent entity that continues to work closely with AADC.
Over the years we have concentrated on actions for local and national issues. Members have done demonstrations on street corners, done a walk to support DACA young people, held up banners over the freeway, written letters and post cards to support candidates and issues, lobbied CA Members of Congress in Sacramento, canvassed Democrats, written letters to the editor, phoned and texted, attended town hall meetings, registered voters, advocated for climate change efforts, and more.

AADC Supports Linda Lareau For Auburn City Council
By Scott Johnson
I’m supporting Linda Lareau for Auburn City Council. All politics are local, and you can’t get more local than City Council. Linda helped me to knock on hundreds of doors in the last City Council election where we were able to get Rachel Radell-Harris elected to an open seat on the Auburn City Council.
Now it is time for us to help Linda Lareau get elected to Auburn City Council. I first met Linda Lareau in 2009 when she sponsored a clean-up of the Auburn Ravine. She hosted the volunteers from California Conservation Corps, along with Lt. Col. Charlie Brown, as we removed trash from the creek in downtown Auburn.
Please support Linda’s campaign. She needs to raise several thousand dollars soon for mailers and signs. You can donate to Linda Lareau’s campaign for Auburn City Council here. In addition, please LIKE Linda’s campaign facebook page here.
