Democracy's Got a Party Going ON!

            Join the BYOB Bash! 

Saturday, October 17th 12-2

Grand Marais Library Lawn

Bring Your Own Ballot — filled out, sealed, and ready to march! We're throwing a family-friendly, totally nonpartisan celebration to get our community fired up (in the good way) about voting.

What's cookin'? Literally — chili, cornbread, and cupcakes are on the menu.

What's happening?   Cornhole, Jenga, and bubbles galore
Face painting for the kids (and let's be honest, the adults who ask nicely)
A real ballot box just for kids — they'll cast their vote for their favorite mascot (may the best critter win!)
Easy, judgment-free info on how voting works

​

Then comes the best part. Once the party's peaked, we're grabbing our sealed ballots and marching together — music blaring, neighbors beside neighbors — straight to the courthouse to drop them in the box. One community, one walk, one democracy.

 

 

Who's invited? Everyone. Every party, every persuasion, every person who believes in showing up. We're not here to argue politics — we're here to build community and remind each other that voting is something we can actually celebrate together.

 

So bring your ballot, bring your appetite, and bring your dance moves for the walk to the courthouse.

                                      This is Democracy — and it's a party.
