Conservative Activist Training July 24th

American Majority is bringing their candidate and activist training to St Louis July 24th.  The cost is $20, and I would strongly recommend if you are interested in effecting positive change at the local, state, and federal level, that you consider training.  This is an all-day seminar where you learn the basics of electioneering.  Gina Loudon spoke of the importance of precinct captains at the Washington MO Tea Party.  This is where you learn how.

Topics to be covered during the Training include:

• Building Coalitions and Reaching Your Community (ideas and practical steps to engage your community and organize a coalition of volunteers)
• Organizing Meaningful Events (step-by-step instruction on how to organize an effective event for a cause, issue group or organization)
• Missouri Government 101 (how government operates, how to get involved on various levels)
• Campaigns and Accountability (how to be an effective campaign volunteer, how to hold leaders accountable once they are in office)
• Effectively Communicating Your Views (how to write effective letters to the editor, opinion editorials and blogs, using social networking tools and wiki projects)
• Additionally, a new media breakout session will be offered at the end of the training.

I have a friend in Kansas City who was very happy with the training, and he's been around the block on several campaigns. Here's my suggestion.  Sign up, and bring a friend with you. If you're serious about making changes, now is the time to step up.

Disclaimer: I'm not involved in this training, but see it as important. In fact, this is a good as time as any to remind you that I don't take any money for this site, and neither do guest contributors. There are some Google ads up, which make about $3 a month, but that's it.  I'm also not a party activist, don't hold office, and am not a political consultant.

Jim, are you everywhere? Criminy, where do you find the time? :)

It just seems that way. Although I probably need to do more work and less activism - so says the wife.
