Independence Day Activities

This weekend is a great opportunity for us to do outreach and collect petitions for our Redistricting petition drive!! I am hoping the the LCYDs can collect at least 250 petitions this Monday, maybe even 500.

'How can we do this?' you ask. Considering that it is less than a week away and we do not have a meeting between now and then that is a good question. While we don't have an official meeting between now and then we do have our weekly get together at Andrew's every Friday night for Drinking Liberally. I strongly encourage those people planning on going to the City of Tallahassee's Celebrate America Events on the 4th of July at Tom Brown Park to be at Andrew's Friday night. We can talk there about arranging for a place to meet up and distributing petitions and other activities. I think it would be nice to watch the fireworks together too.

Though many of you have other plans for Independence Day, you many still participate if you would like. As long as you are somewhere around registered voters from the State of Florida then you can be collecting petitions. I have hundreds of blank petitions available at the Florida Democratic Party Headquarters (where we hold our meetings). Stop by and I will give you as many as you think you might be able to get signed. In fact, I will probably give you more! If each of our active members collects 10 or more petitions this Monday, whether with us or on their own, we will have several hundred petitions.

This is a great chance for us to get out in the community and be seen and to help advance an issue that we really care about.

I would also encourage you to wear your LCYD T-Shirt on Monday. Don't forget that the t-shirts are available at the Florida Democratic Party HQ during normal business hours. The T-shirts cost $15 for our LCYD members and are 100% Union Made!

I hope that each of you can take part in this activity. See you Friday or sooner!
