The first of two Precinct Caucus trainings will be held at the Urban League on Penn and Plymouth on Saturday, February 16th from 10am until 1pm. Jackie Byers and I will do the training and our speakers will be elected officials Rep. Neva Walker, Rep. Greg Gray and Council members Natalie Johnson Lee and Robert Lillegren. We will break out into a smaller session for folks that are interested in being Precinct Chairs. We will discuss the roles, responsibilities and opportunities as a precinct chair.
Our focus is going to be on those that traditionally don't attend Precinct Caucuses and we will relate this to the legislative session and participatory democracy vs representative democracy. There will be a portion on how to write resolutions and why resolutions from everyday people is so very important, particularly now. Please distribute this to the lists as you see fit. There will be another training in a couple weeks on the Southside of Minneapolis. I will announce it as soon as I get the date confirmed with the other trainer and the speakers. This is training is not affiliated with any party, no matter what your party leaning, is invited to attend. If folks want further information they can call me at 612-724-2997. Take care, Matthea _____________________________________________________ Hitta sn�rapporter... fr�n 500 olika skidorter i Europa p� http://se.snow.yahoo.com _______________________________________ Minneapolis Issues Forum - A Civil City Civic Discussion - Mn E-Democracy Post messages to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest option, and more: http://e-democracy.org/mpls
