Aitkin County DFL Harvest Dinner and Fundraiser
Once again, Aitkin County Democrats will gather at Long Lake Conservation Center, the gem of Aitkin County, for the annual Harvest Dinner and Fundraiser!
When: Sunday, October 5, 2025
Time: 1:00 (doors open) 3:00 (dinner is served)
Our theme for the day is 'Hope and Resilience,' inspired by the Melissa and Mark Hortman family with their quote “Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear.” Our guest speaker will be Teresa Kitteridge of Marcel who has founded the organization 100 Rural Women. There will be the usual General Store with many items to purchase, such as baked goods and garden produce. There is usually a delicious pie or two. Donations of garden or baked goods are encouraged and may be brought along to the fundraiser. Also, a live auction of a few choice items will be held. Although the dinner menu has not yet been chosen, we know from experience that it will be smashing.
Tickets are $40 and can be purchased by calling Sue Tange (218-791-1069) or Shirley Pick (218-838-1464).

Labor Day was established in the late 19th century to honor the American labor movement and the contributions of workers to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of the country. It became a federal holiday in 1894 after nationwide labor strikes and the growing influence of unions.
Today, billionaires and corporate interests are draining resources from working families, attacking immigrants and marginalized communities, and treating our democracy like something to be bought and sold.
In Brainerd, we know that real strength comes from neighbors showing up for and with each other.
That’s why on Labor Day, we’re joining thousands across the country to say: we want a fair, just, and equitable future. One where people matter more than profit, and where every voice is heard.
Join us! Register Here.
