We are in the final stretch of this critical campaign, and we need all hands on deck to ensure victory for Maria Peterson in her tight race against Marty. As we approach Election Day, we’re inviting all of our local supporters to join us for Maria’s last fundraising event before we head to the polls.
On October 21, from 6:30 to 8:30 PM, we’ll gather at Strawberry Moon (204 S Main St, Wauconda, IL) for a night of live music from Jeff Trudell, fun, and the opportunity to rally together as a community ahead of early voting.
Join us for our monthly meetings on the fourth Tuesday of each month. We discuss township politics, election events, candidates, as well as committee initiatives. These meetings are open to the public.
Hybrid meetings starting in February 2023. 40 people allowed in person. Zoom for attendees beyond that. Details coming soon.

We have a new candidate running for St. Charles Council in Ward 3. Her name is Vicki Spellman. She just stepped up to serve and is holding a fundraiser meet and greet on Monday, November 11th at 5:30 p.m. This will be held at Global Brew Tap House on Prairie Street in St. Charles. If you could come support her, meet her and help spread the word about her candidacy it would go a long way in getting her launched.
