2015 Capitol Weekly Top 100 Party

This year, Capitol Weekly will unveil the Top 100 List at an end-of-session reception on Tuesday, August 25. You’re invited to celebrate with us at this lively mixer featuring drinks and a special TOP 100 appetizer menu! You’ll have fun! You’ll be the first to receive a copy of Capitol Weekly’s Top 100 Book!

Capitol Weekly’s Top 100 list names the most powerful movers and shakers in California politics. We don’t include elected officials. Instead, we look at those who devote their professional lives to fighting for – or against – issues of state politics and policy, including lobbyists, bureaucrats, activists, trade group leaders, Capitol staffers and even journalists.

And you’ll be supporting a good cause: All proceeds from The Top 100 Party benefit Open California, publisher of Capitol Weekly. Open California is a nonprofit organization formed in 2012 to continue - and expand on - the important public policy work done by Capitol Weekly.

Three years later, Open California is growing. We've maintained a grueling schedule: regular updates to CapitolWeekly.net, the Roundup and Political Pulse, produced our quarterly Public Policy Conference series and the Politics on Tap TV show and our internship program with the University of California Sacramento Center.

We'd love to have you help us celebrate the release of the 2015 Top 100 List at the Top 100 Party. Tickets to the Top 100 Party are $100 each and the ticket price is tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.*

Buy 5 tickets and get the 6th one FREE - just contact kathy.brown@capitolweekly.net with the name of your sixth guest!

*For federal income tax purposes, you can deduct as a charitable contribution the price of this ticket less its fair market value. We estimate the fair market value of this ticket to be $40, so your charitable contribution is $60.

Capitol Weekly Top 100 Party Tuesday, August 25, 5:30 PM – 7:30 The Senator Hotel, 1121 L Street, Sacramento
