Campus Camp Wellstone Coming to UK

by Dave Newton last modified November-14-2008 05:19 PM

Campus Camp Wellstone

UK Student Government and the Kentucky Secretary of State's office are bringing an important student political training to UK Campus on November 21st and 22nd - Campus Camp Wellstone

 

It's a powerful grassroots organizing training open to all UK students and we've just gotten word that it should be open to all other college students across the state as well! (we'll know for sure on Monday).


We know it's a challenging time of year for students to be able to travel to Lexington and spend two days training for future grassroots organizing, but we highly recommend you go

Students who wish to attend should send an email to Grant Mills at gtmill3@uky.edu to reserve your spot.

The training will be held at the ES Goodbarn on UK campus and begins at 3pm on Friday, November 21st and ends at 5:30pm on Saturday.

Meals and the training itself are FREE.  If you're traveling from out of town, contact Dave Newton at Dave@kftc.org and we might be able to work out lodgings paid for by KFTC.

KFTC Folks Coming

Posted by Dave Newton at November-19-2008 06:53 PM
We've sent out word of the workshop statewide and called some of our members at Transy, BCTC, UofL, Morehead, EKU, Berea College, WKU, and a few Eastern KY Community Colleges to invite them.

We'll have tons of folks coming from UK, a few coming from Transy, and hopefully lots more.

I hope more of you can come - let us know ASAP.
