Gainesville District - Reorganization Meeting
2025-12-08 18:30 - 19:30 | VA
Dear Current GMDDC Member,

The GMDDC is in the midst of a reorganization required by our bylaws every two years. This requires each of us to file a new application to continue our membership for two (2) years and be eligible to vote in the election of our four officers: Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Treasurer. The Officer Election and Reorganization meeting will be held on December 8, 2025, beginning at 6:30 PM, at Giuseppe’s in Haymarket. There will also be a virtual option sent out at a later date.

Please note: Unless you have filled out a new membership application and are voted in at the December 8th meeting, you will not be able to vote even if you are present in person or online. Please try to do this in advance as we don’t want to have to slow down the process that evening if it can be avoided. The link to the Membership Application is here: JOIN THE GMDDC.

Our current officers (see position descriptions below) are as follows:

Chair: Mark Leighton
Vice-Chair: Marc Etchepare
Secretary- Linda David
Treasurer- Gene Klein

To date, only one of the officers has definitely decided not to run again, and that is Gene Klein, Treasurer. So that position is open and will need to be filled.

If you are interested in running for any of the positions please submit a candidate statement with your name and a brief statement about why you are interested in running for one of the offices by Saturday, November 29th to a member or members of the Nominating Committee shown below. Role descriptions for each office are attached for your review.

-Yubo Zhang:

-Nancy Detweiler:
-Collin Robinson:

-Ann Wheeler:

Please note: Candidates for election may be nominated from the floor at the Reorganization Meeting on December 8.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out to any member of the Nomination Committee.

In service,

GMDDC Officer Nominating Committee Members

Pre-Session Fundraiser in support of Delegate-Elect Elizabeth Guzman
2026-01-11 16:00 - 18:00 | VA
Join us for a Pre-Session Fundraiser in support of Delegate-Elect Elizabeth Guzman, hosted by Roberta Baskin and Jim Trengrove at their home.
Elizabeth has a proven record of delivering results for the people of Virginia. Delegate Guzman is a former Delegate recently re-elected to represent the 22nd District which includes: Nokesville, Bristow, Gainesville, and parts of Manassas.
In the legislature, Elizabeth served in the Commerce and Energy Committee, the Health, Welfare and Institutions Committee, and the Education Committee. Elizabeth introduced more than 100 bills during her time in office and served as vice chair of the education committee and chair of the subcommittee of the social services committee.
As a second-generation union member, she led the fight for a “paid sick days” law so no Virginian had to choose between their health and a paycheck. She also passed historic legislation that lifted Virginia’s blanket ban on public sector collective bargaining. She has been recognized as a successful legislator by numerous advocacy organizations such as the Virginia Education Association and the Virginia League of Conservation Voters.
Now as she prepares to return to the House of Delegates, we want to send her off strong and well prepared to continue the fight in the legislature.
We’re excited to host this event on Sunday, January 11th from 4–6 PM at the home of Roberta and Jim. Join us for good company, good food, good times and a conversation about the upcoming legislative session and 2026 elections!
Please reach out to Tyler Phillips at tyler@guzmanforvirginia.com with any questions.
Get your ticket today and help Delegate-Elect Guzman go into session strong!
Street Parking and parking on-site will be available. Address is available upon RSVP.
