The Democratic Club of Ventura's inaugural summer fundraiser Sunday, June 30, had something for everyone!  The sold out event's 210 attendees were greeted and checked in by a team of amazing volunteers and then joined a room full of energy and enthusiasm as community members and elected representatives met and discussed important issues.
