Central Committee Meeting

May 22, 2012 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Dinner (optional)

Our next meeting will be Tuesday, May 22, at Pagliai’s Pizza, 816 5th Ave., Grinnell. As usual, optional dining at 6 p.m.; business meeting at 7 p.m.

Our guest speakers will be:

  • Iowa Senator (District #38) Tom Rielly
  • Iowa Senate District # 38 Candidates:
    • Shelley Parbs
    • LaForest Sherman
    • Nick Volk

These candidates will be “making closing arguments”, bringing yard signs and Volunteer Sign-up Sheets to engage us in their campaigns.  Be ready to sign up and pitch in!

One item of Old Business to be addressed will be the upcoming summer parades and festivals throughout the county.  At our last meeting, we briefly discussed new ways of doing these events—bicycle “posse”, golf carts, ATV’s, floats, tractor & flatbed trailer, etc.  PLEASE be thinking of a novel way to attend these events as well as making it easier on our participants!  Remember Grinnell’s “death march” from Donaldson’s, through town and on to Ahrens Park!  And the oh, not so friendly Brooklyn hills and vales (LOOKS flat, but it AIN’T!)

Two of the towns have “themes”—Montezuma: “Stars and Stripes Forever”;  Grinnell: “An Inventor’s Paradise”.  Most of you have children or grandchildren who may come up with some “groovy” ideas so we can have some fun with this!

Luckily for all of us, the festivities are a bit more spaced than previous years, so we will have a short breather between performances.  We really need to be out in full force with placards for all of our Democratic candidates!  This is NOT the time to fold our sails and crawl off into obscurity!
