Souls 4 Souls - Haitian Relief
Bring your gently used shoes to the meeting. All shoes collected will be sent to Souls4Souls for distribution to the Haitian people. |
Dear Democrats,
This is going to be a busy year, and we are starting off with a bang! Come and have your voice heard at our first meeting of the year as we set out to endorse local candidates for City Council, decided on whether or not to support ballot measures in upcoming elections. If you aren’t familiar with these matters, our meetings are a great place to learn!!
2010 also brings elections to the DAA. One way you can get more involved is to become an officer of your local club. All positions are open. These positions include:
President
Vice President
Controller (similar to a Treasurer)
Corresponding Secretary
Recording Secretary
If you are interested in running for one of these positions, nominations will be taken from the floor during our January 28th meeting. Self-nominations may be submitted in writing to the Recording Secretary, Laura Teter, before the meeting, or from the floor. You can send your nominations to Laura at info@daa.org. If you would like more information on how to run for one of these office, please email us at info@daa.org, and we will be happy to send you a copy of our bylaws.
We will also be participating in Sport Chalet’s Soles4Souls effort to help the people of Haiti. The recent earthquake in Haiti reminds all of us just how fragile our day-to-day lives can be. We Californians live with a threat of an earthquake every day. Here is something simple and tangible YOU can do to help the people of Haiti:
Bring new or “gently worn” shoes to our meeting.
We will make sure all donations get delivered to the Souls4Soles program.
Our next scheduled DAA Meeting will be on January 28. 2010.7:00 p.m. at Vincenzo’s on Lyons Avenue in Newhall.
Democratically yours, Michael Kulka, president
