Interest in New Power at Union College
Late last night, to accommodate schedules, faculty, staff, and student at Union College in Knox County gathered to discuss the possibilities of building a KFTC chapter on their campus. Time was spent getting to know each other as well as the local and state-wide work of KFTC. Not all the folks there were members, but everyone took membership forms and are excited to join the KFTC family and be a part of our next 30 years!
Nine people talked through KFTC's current state-wide campaigns, their relevancy at Union, and how Union can add to this growing new power in Kentucky. They all seemed to be hooked after one faculty KFTC member read the vision statement aloud. By the end of the meeting, folks had planned to distribute nearly 50 voter guides and scheduled their next meet up as a film screening of the newly released I Was There: The first 30 years of Kentuckians for the Commonwealth for Monday, November 15th.
Stay tuned! There is certainly more to come from this exciting new energy in southeast Kentucky!
