The Massachusetts Democratic Convention is coming soon. Even if you were not elected a delegate, there are many ways that you can participate.
1) You can volunteer at the Convention. We always need volunteers, especially during registration. This is a big help to the Party. You generally need to commit to being there early. After most people have registered then you can attend the general session and the training sessions. No charge to attend! You can sign up here. Just put in your contact information and mark in the comments that you want to attend the convention.
2) You can sign up to attend as a paying guest. The charge is only $25 and it leaves you free to do whatever you want during the convention.
Use the drop down box under “Type of Attendee” to select “guest” and use the drop down box under “Fee – Select Amount” to select the $25 guest fee.
3) If you are 35 years old or younger, are a member of a minority or have a disability,. you can apply to attend as an add on delegate. Applications must be returned to the Democratic State Committee by April 1st, 2011.
Disability add on:.
Minority add on.
Youth add on.
Senator Jamie Eldridge and Mara Dolan’s Public Policy Committee are working hard on a number of break out sessions. Arthur Powell and I are putting together some sessions as part of our work on the Communications Committee.
It is always a lot of fun to meet activists from across the state.
