Play Ball!


Davis Demos and GOP to battle on the ballfield

SYRACUSE — Davis County Democrats and Republicans will take to the diamond Saturday for their second annual softball game.

The contest will begin at 7 p.m. at Syracuse Founders Park, 1500 S. 1900 West in Syracuse.

Davis Republicans chairman Ben Horsley said the game was a big hit in 2006. In that game, the Republicans soundly beat the Democrats in a defeat not unlike election night for partisan offices, Horsley said.

But Davis County Democrats chairman Richard Watson said the game was tied until the last inning, when the Republicans took a 10-run lead.

"It just wasn't right," Watson said.

This year, Watson said, he is looking for some heavy hitters to join his team. Horsley said his team is nearly full.

For more information, call Watson at 801-540-3146 or Horsley at 801-529-4387.

Rose Red Foundation leader to speak at Davis County Democrats Breakfast Meeting

We have a very interesting meeting coming up for this Saturday's Breakfast meeting.

Mr. Roy Brown who heads the Rose Red Foundation will be our guest speaker. The Rose Red Foundation was formed by a group of private citizens, many of them veterans who have taken on the responsibility of raising funds for the Veteran's hospital in Ogden. They are trying to do what our state legislators will not do. In light of the Walter Reed scandals at Washington D. C. where a Senator called it the "tip of the iceberg" one wonders why the Legislature is sitting on about $4.5 million of state funds which are earmarked for the hospital? Maybe Mr. Brown will be able to answer this question for us. At any rate it will be a very informative meeting so plan to attend. Here is the information you need for the place and time.

The Davis County Democrats will meet for their monthly breakfast, Saturday, March 10, at Granny Annie's Restaurant located at 286 north 400 west in Kaysville. Breakfast begins at 8:30 AM.

Don't forget to bring your nonperishable food donation for the Davis County Food Bank. People are hungry every day of the year.

All Democrats and the general public are invited.
