Volunteers Needed!
"Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation."
- Robert F. Kennedy

G.O.T.V. - Do you want to help build a strong Napa Democratic Party from the ground up? Are grassroots politics your thing? Then voter registration/get out the vote committee needs you! Help us register new Democrats and educate existing voters. We are the ground troops of the party. Come join a group of outstanding and fun volunteers! Because of our great volunteers, Napa County became one of the top 10 most improved counties for registered Democrats. We can only continue to improve with your help. To get involved, please contact:

Speaker's Program - The Speaker's Program, initiated by the Club in 2005, has been a vital part of our goal "to educate and inform." We need volunteers who can help suggest and contact potential speakers, and who will also greet and meet speakers (if they are from out-of-town) and who will write a short biography of each speaker that we can post on our website. I will work with each volunteer to train them on the steps to be taken. To get involved, please contact:
Sharon Macklin

Website Chair Jennifer Thornton

I'm also looking for an experienced person to act as a back up coder/designer. Drop me a line at the address above for more information.
Other Volunteer Opportunities:
Database management - New volunteers are flocking to our cause every hour of every day. That means there's a mountain of volunteer and other information to process. Any time and/or brainpower you can devote to this crucial initiative is highly valued. For more info e-mail to technology@democratsofnapavalley.org
Fundraising - Red states, blue states, yellow states - the only color that matters this year is green. Help us combat the Republican money machine! To get involved send e-mail to fr@democratsofnapavalley.org or call 224-5700
Outreach -
Minority outreach - Help get the word out about the Democratic Party. Spanish speakers/writers are particularly in demand.
Veterans Outreach - A conversation with a veteran makes voters listen hard and think harder. Come join your brothers and sisters in speaking to fellow veterans and the voting public about our cause.
Interested please e-mail info@democratsofnapavalley.org
Writer's Bureau - Politics is in large measure a war of words. Want to be on the front lines? The Writer's Bureau seeks volunteers to promote, defend, and describe Democratic candidates, ideals, and values online and in print. We need Letters to the Editor ("LTE"), slices of campaign life for the Weblog ("blog"), and concise descriptions of policies and programs for the volunteers on the street. Many other jobs as well, as times and tactics evolve. Those with experience in writing, advertising, PR, and/or poli-sci are encouraged to volunteer. If interested e-mail writers@democratsofnapavalley.org
Other - We have needs we haven't even thought of yet. And you have skills and connections to match. Let us know what they are. Send your thoughts to info@democratsofnapavalley.org
