Types of Events

Drinks and Dialogue
The topics vary and League members and the public are invited to participate in these events free of charge. Refreshments are available for purchase. Drinks and Dialogue is held on the third Wednesday of the month. 

Membership Social (summer)
This evening event is for members and new members to meet, mingle, and renew membership. It is a great opportunity to bring friends and family who might be interested in joining. This is also an opportunity to speak to committee chairs to learn about ways to get involved.
​
Annual Business Meeting of LWVGP (held in May)
At this important members-only meeting, we elect officers and directors, vote on positions, approve the recommended calendar, decide whether a study will be done, adopt the budget, discuss action items and enjoy refreshments.

​Candidate Forums
Prior to local elections, the League hosts candidate forums. Some are sponsored by the LWV and others are hosted in partnership with groups that have requested them through the League's voter services.

Registering Voter Events
Various voter registration events are held, including those at Naturalization Ceremonies. If you would like to register voters, please contact us. If you are not already a deputy registrar, our Voter Services committee chair can tell you how to get the (1 hour) training.

Mock Elections
Groups can request to hold a mock election through the League's voter services.

Past Events

Earth Day Celebration at Forest Park!
Several very brave – and frigid -- members of the LWVGP Climate Change Committee faced gusty winds and icy crystals as they staffed the LWVGP booth at the Earth Day Festival on April 22, 2023, at the Forest Park Nature Center. Pictured with the booth are the set-up team of John Fendrich, Ruth Urbanc,
and Jim Runyon.

Thanks to all who staffed the booth and to those who visited and learned more about solar energy and how it “plays in Peoria”.
