Campaign Services and Candidate Recruitment Committee - Time to Get Cracking!
Campaign Services will meet the second Thursdays of the month. Our March meeting is on the 9th beginning at 7 PM. We do not have a confirmed place. Those wishing to attend, please email me at sunrise@peak.org or call at 929-2289 and I will send out information about where we are meeting in a couple of days.
We begin focusing more on campaign services for candidates. There are some 48 offices up for election in 2006. Filing for partisan and statewide non-partisan offices closes on March 7. There will still be need for recruiting for non-partisan offices, around 30 offices, such as city councils and fire boards. The closing for filing for those offices is August 29. Filing for those offices has not opened yet.
