Please join our candidate for the 97th state house district, Patrick O'Keeffe, in the Underground on Friday, Sept. 24th for a delightful Vegetarian Dinner.

Many fundraisers feature the "same old, same old". This fundraiser will appeal to vegetarians and every one else because PATRICK IS COOKING.

The menu will feature locally grown produce prepared exquisitely to tempt and satisfy the most ardent meat lover and to assure our supporters who are vegetarian that there will be something to accommodate their food preferences.

Patrick supports "Buy Fresh, Buy Local." He supports small farms and the working families that produce the products that are fresh and healthy food.

Join us at the Underground on Friday evening on September 24th for a evening of good food and great entertainment. Contributions...$25.00 / $40.00 per couple.

Bobbi and Anne Carmitchell will be the featured entertainment for the evening. Many of you will remember the folk festival at the Underground in June when Bobbi and Anne performed. It was a great evening of fun and we are looking forward to their second performance at the Underground this year.
