Fifth Anniversary!

Like a few other former Dean For America Meetups, Democracy For The Greater Glens Falls Area got an early start, first coming together to support Governor Dean's candidacy in April, 2003.

 Five years later, we're still together and working for liberal and progressive causes in northeastern New York State, having missed only two meetings in all that time due to venue problems.    

 A few members of Glens Falls DFA pose with our old Dean banner!

 At our special anniversary meeting we hung up our Howard Dean For America banner for old time's sake. It was a glorious sight that really took all us old Deaniacs back, and we thought the whole DFA community would feel the same way, too.   

 

 As the Grateful Dead once sang, what a long strange trip it's been!   We've branched out into environmental, energy and other issues.  But we're going to keep on truckin', carrying on the principles of the Howard Dean campaign of working for progressive candidates and causes, fighting right wing extremism and building a new American community.
