Join Us for our Welcome Summer Cookout

Dearest Dems,

I'm really excited to see all y'all at our cookout this week! Please keep reading for a few other campaign activities we have going on.

Welcome Summer Cookout
We will hold a welcome summer cookout Wednesday, May 5 at 1021 St. Charles Ave in lieu of our regular meeting. We'll have veggie and hamburgers in addition to a few sides. Just give whatever you can to cover the costs of the cookout. Any leftover funds will ultimately go to Tom. Please respond to this e-mail to RSVP so we know how much food to get.

Phone Bank for Tom!
There will be a phone bank on Thursday this week from 6 to 8 p.m. Let me know if you'd like to join. It's really important that we start to step up our efforts for Tom. He really needs us out there talking to voters! Just e-mail margaret.e.thornton@gmail.com if you'd like to come along!

Canvassing
Work on your tan and enjoy the beautiful weather by knocking doors for Tom this Saturday. Canvass shifts start at 10 a.m., noon, and 2 p.m. Come by 2250 Old Ivy Road to get packets. E-mail margaret.e.thornton@gmail.com if you have any questions or would like a ride.

That's it for this week. See y'all tomorrow!

Democratically yours,
Maggie

Common Good Summer Deadline Friday
For those of you still trying to nail down your summer plans consider applying to be a Common Good Summer Fellow. The Common Good Summer Fellowship program allows students to engage in intense grassroots campaign work throughout the 5th District. The program is a lot of work, but really fun! This is seriously a great opportunity for anyone looking to stay involved with the Perriello campaign through the summer. Anyone can apply, because housing will be provided wherever you are assigned! The application and more information are available here: http://perrielloforcongress.com/cgsapplication. Admission is rolling, but the final deadline is April 30th.

Fundraising at the Pavilion
We'll be doing some fundraising at the Pavilion Friday July 2 starting at 5:15. We need four people. Just start thinking about it now.
