2011 East TN Labor Day Picnic
Despite the rain, we had a good turnout from all over East Tennessee for our picnic, with great speeches by TN AFL-CIO president Jerry Lee, Teachers Assoc. Representative Reba Luttrell, and TN Senator Andy Berke. Thanks to everyone involved, who helped make this an event to remember.
Photos are posted on the Roane County Democratic Party page on Facebook. Unfortunately, my camera battery ran out after Jerry Lee gave his speech, but I’ll let you know when Steve Scarborough posts his photos.

Second Harvest Fundraiser
The Roane County Democratic Party would like to thank everyone who came out and contributed to the success of the Second Harvest Fundraiser at Market Street Fountain. RCDP helped raise nearly $500.00 toward this worthy charity. Second Harvest helps feed hungry Tennesseans in 18 East Tennessee counties. Market Street Fountain was a great partner in this worthy cause. Lots of delicious food and ice cream was bought and served during the fundraiser. Next time you’re in Kingston, check them out next to Food City.
