Getting Active in Local Democrat Clubs, Part III

Yesterday, Tuesday June 8th, Mr. Jackson spoke at the Decatur Township Democrats Club and their Club President, Jon Easter, proposed that they waive the membership fee for any young Democrat that is under the age of 25. Mr. Easter's proposal passed, and thus that makes the Decatur Twp. Democrats Club, the third Democrats club in the areas surrounding the UIndy campus to waive fees for young members. This is a very, very good thing because it demonstrates how vital the youth movement is to these clubs. I think State Representative Candidate, Timothy Huber, said it best last night at the Decatur meeting to the club members, "We aren't getting any younger, and these kids are the future of this club!"

We need to become more involved in the community and in these local clubs, if we ever want to be taken seriously and have a role in local politics. So please, feel free to join other club members at these meetings, it will mean alot for their organizations. The Decatur Club, beings it is my home township club, also appointed me as the Chairman of their Youth Committee, in order to try to get more youth involved.

Later this week, I will post more about our newly amended organizational constitution and in coming weeks, news about the Indianapolis Coalition of College Democrats and our participation in UIndy Life Expo, Move-in Day, and the UIndy Circus Welcome Week activities will be posted.
Please feel free to post comments below and let me know what you think about this developing news, or about any ideas you have for the club!
