🌟 Oh, what a night! The Surf Ballroom was packed as Democrats from across the region gathered for the annual North Iowa Wing Ding! 🎶💙 It was an incredible evening filled with energy, inspiration, and a full house of supporters ready to make change in the 2026 election.

🔥 Attendees had the chance to meet and hear from fantastic Democratic candidates who are fired up and working hard to turn our state and our country around. The highlight of the evening was a powerful keynote address from Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol Officer Harry Dunn, whose courage and message inspired everyone in the room. 🙌✨

📸 We captured so many great moments from the night—see more photos on our Facebook page!

✨ The Kossuth County Democrats are beyond proud of our very own Josh Manske 🎉, who was honored with the Rising Star Award last night at the North Iowa Wing Ding! 🌟 This is such an incredible honor, and we are very lucky to have Josh as part of our team and our community. 💙 His leadership and dedication to creating opportunities for Kossuth County youth through the Dolores Mertz Memorial Scholarship 🎓 and the inspiring Chautauqua Talks 💬 are truly appreciated. 🙌👏

🌟 Kossuth County Democrats Shine at the Fair! 🌟

The Kossuth County Democrats had a fantastic time at this year’s fair! 🎡 Our booth was a vibrant, welcoming space where we connected with community members 🤝, shared ideas 💬, and had many meaningful conversations about the future we want to build together 🌱.

Decked out in ❤️🤍💙, our booth proudly celebrated rural voices 🐄, strong public schools 📚, and quality affordable healthcare 🏥. From thoughtful discussions to friendly hellos 👋, it was inspiring to see so many people stop by to chat, pick up information, and learn more about the work we’re doing here in Kossuth County.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who visited, volunteered, and helped make our booth a success—you are the heart and soul of our movement.💙 Together, we’re making a difference right here at home. 🏡
