The Sussex County Democratic Committee will hold its annual spring dinner from 5 to 9 p.m., Saturday, May 4, at the CHEER Center, 20520 Sand Hill Road, Georgetown. 

Guests are invited to attend an evening filled with fellowship, tasty cuisine, uplifting music and a chance to hear local candidates make a pitch for each person’s vote.

This year's dinner will feature a special tribute to retiring Sen. Tom Carper, honoring his years of dedicated service and commitment to the people of Delaware.
