August Meeting
Thursday August 17, 2017
Mooresville Public Library
6-8 pm
220 West Harrison Street
Mooresville, Indiana
TOPICS:
1. Annual Morgan County Democrats Gathering and Fundraiser to be held Saturday October 14, 2017 at Foxcliff Manor House.
2. Fall Foliage Festival Parade 15 October 2017 - Indiana Senator Joe Donnelly will be marching with the Morgan County Democrats in the Parade. Do we want to do a float? Or, march, greet people, pass out candy, and Democratic Candidate materials?
In addition to Senator Joe Donnelly, marching with us will be:
Penny Githens - who is running for State Representative from District 60;
Liz Watson - Congressional Candidate 9th District
Dan Canon - Congressional Candidate 9th District
There may be others.
3. Report of response to Democratic Fair Booths at the Morgan County Fair and Mooresville Old Settlers Festival.
4. It is crucial for us to develop an Outreach Program to contact all of the 7,700 registered Democrats in Morgan County. To do this we need some individuals to help collate our voter data by Precinct and develop a plan to contact these registered Democrats. This can be door-to-door, phone calls, or developing a mailer. There are a lot of Democrats in Morgan County that do are not aware of an active Party in Morgan County.
5. There are 72 elected offices in Morgan County for which we need a Candidate for the 2017 May Primary.
To assist individuals that may run for an office we are preparing a Candidate Playbook for each office. The Playbook will list the Office, duties, and responsibilities of the office; current office holder - their position on issues and voting record. Plus, what it takes to be an effective office holder and what assets are available to assist in fulfilling the duties and responsibilities of the office.
We have one volunteer to assist with this project and could use several others.
6. Review of Fundraising options.
7. A Democratic Family Picnic to be held at a City Park or County Park.
FESTIVAL SEASON IS HERE AND WE WILL BE AT:
The Monrovia Festival - September 8, 9, 10
Martinsville Fall Foliage Festival - October 12, 13, 14, 15
We need volunteers to help set-up, maintain, and break down the of the booth.
