About the ODTC
The Orange Democratic Town Committee (ODTC) works to improve the quality of life for Orange residents by engaging, educating, and advocating for our community. We advance Democratic ideals and foster inclusive civic participation while developing and supporting candidates for local, state and federal offices who represent the diverse voices of all Orange residents.
​
Monthly meetings: Third Tuesday of each month, 7pm at High Plains Community Center. Open to the public.
Contact us at 203-314-9975, by email, or this form if you'd like to attend or have any questions.
Community Involvement
ODTC members participate in community initiatives throughout the year, including:
-
Orange Country Fair booth in the Civic Tent - we hand out voter registration and absentee ballot forms, and provide info about candidates, who are often there to answer questions.
-
The ODTC has raised or donated funds for breast cancer research, local scholarships, disaster relief efforts, the Orange fuel bank, and the Orange Food Bank.
-
Multiple members of the ODTC volunteered on Orange Bicentennial Committees and helped with the Bicentennial Family Dinner.
-
Many ODTC members are members/officers of other Orange groups - Orange Rotary, Orange Lion’s Club, Orange Players, Orange Historical Society, Orange Community Women, and Orange Recycling Committee, to name a few.​
