------ IT’S BLUE TURN STUFF

Canvass for Prop.50 in Mountain View / Los Altos

We are co-hosting two canvassing locations for Prop.50 in Mountain View / Los Altos, on Sept.27 and Nov.2: https://www.mobilize.us/swingleft/event/839301/.

Please volunteer to either help me (and Swing Left) to do it — it'll be in the park, we'll be checking people in and handing out materials — or volunteer to canvass with your friends.

Tabling with Anna Eshoo on Oct.9

Come table with me at an event with Anna Eshoo on Oct.9. We'll recruit people to come to No Kings Day 2.0, to canvass for Prop.50, and other projects. Let me know! 5:30pm–10pm, Palo Alto Women’s Club (listing for the event, you don't need to register as a volunteer). You can come for the whole duration or a shorter shift.

No Kings Day 2.0: Time to Volunteer

Time to volunteer for the No Kings Day 2.0! Remember, you're on this list because you want to be more active, right? :) Have you already signed up to do so? (To sign up for the NKD2 itself and find out more.)

I'm hosting volunteer planning meeting on Sept.18, and only 9 people signed up. It takes many people to put an event on, especially such a big one, and there are many roles and tasks. Many are before the event itself and can be done remotely (such as outreach, flyering, preparing activities and materials), some are on the day of (set-up and clean up, orienting visitors, running the activity stations, etc).
