As the summer is fast approaching, many communities are beginning to plan their first in-person events in several years. From barbeques and townhall meetings to potlucks and craft fairs, hosting events gives communities a unique opportunity to come together and celebrate a shared experience.
Take your event to the next level and invite one of your community’s elected officials! These events are incredible opportunities for your elected officials and their staff to experience the incredible culture of your community and learn firsthand about the community association housing model.

Your elected officials are home!
Lawmakers will spend an average of 40 days during the summer months in recess and use this time to be in their home states and districts! You don’t have to visit the state capitol or travel to Washington, D.C. to meet with your elected officials.
You’re already hosting an event, why not invite a VIP? The planning for your event is already in motion, boost attendance by inviting your elected officials!
