Meetings For Oct & Nov

Meetings To Be Held On Weeknights

The Framingham Democratic Committee is striving to find locations to resume in-person meetings.  The ability to meet on Zoom was a huge benefit during the times of COVID, however there is a need and desire to resume live in-person meetings.

The previous location where meetings had taken place is no longer available.  The Committee has struggled to find locations for Sunday evenings which is the most preferred time as indicated by the membership for many years.

The FDC is planning to hold its October and November business meetings on weeknights.  These will be held a meeting rooms of the Framingham Public Library.  Due to the library hours the start time for the meetings will be moved up by a half hour to 6:30pm.
