Club History
The end of the 1940's saw the completion of the housing stock that is the city of Berkley. However, it was not until the rising tide of enthusiasm that followed the election of John F. Kennedy that the Berkley Democratic Club came into existence. The optimism and turbulence of the 1960's saw the fledgling club nurtured into place by Berkley resident Sandy Levin. Others helped for the next ten years but Sandy provided the drive and inspiration that set the club on a secure footing.
