Camp Wellstone is coming to North Carolina, March 28-30, 2008. Reserve your space today! Don't miss out on this exciting training opportunity to gear up for the 2008 elections. This 2.5 day training, based on the late Senator Paul Wellstone's model, combines lectures from highly experienced trainers, stimulating exercises, and interactive simulations. We're counting on you to organize around issues that matter and elect progressive candidates to office.

Register for one of the following tracks:
Citizen activism--learn how to win on issues and build community power.
Working on a Campaign--learn how to run successful electoral campaigns.
Being a Candidate--learn the skills needed for running for office yourself.

The cost of Camp Wellstone is a sliding scale based on ability to pay. Rates are as follows: $200 (full cost), $100 (50% of training cost), or $50 (25% of training cost). This fee includes materials, a copy of our book Politics the Wellstone Way, and three meals during the weekend. We are not able to guarantee your space at the Camp unless payment is received two weeks prior to the start date.

This Camp will be held at the McKimmon Center on the campus of NC State University in Raleigh, NC. Camp runs from 3-9pm Friday, 9am-6pm Saturday, and 9am-3:30pm Sunday. Participants are responsible for their own accommodations.

I'm an '05 Raleigh Camp Wellstone grad, and also was fortunate to attend a slightly modified version of the Campus Camp Wellstone program in DC back in '06. Even if you've got an extensive background in campaigns, this program does a great job of tying it all together, and more importantly, tying your actions as an activist back to the causes that led you into progressive activism in the first place. I can't speak highly enough of my experience with them.

For the post on Camp Wellstone.

I spoke to Jen Haut a few days ago and she said there was room for a few more, so it's not too late to check out Camp Wellstone this weekend. I will be leading a short session about online campaigning on their Sunday agenda.
