Hello my fellow Democrats. Has I promised at the Alliance meeting I would give you an up date on scheduling for the Third District Democrats first 2010 meeting which will be held in Valentine. The meeting will take place on Saturday January 30,2010. It will be held at the meeting room of Cedar Canyon restaurant. The restaurant will also take care of the meal. We get to use the meeting room free of Charge. Many people have asked me about the agenda. I am working on getting speakers and work shops set up. We have two semi conformed. I won't announce who they are;until they are 100% tied down. Many of you have sent in suggestions for many speakers. Thank you for doing so. Please keep it up. I have contacted every person you have suggested. Some can't come. Some cost a tremendous amount of money from the cheapest of 500.00$ to the most expensive of 30,000 $. WOW! If you want those speakers please find me the funds to pay for them. The two most asked about speakers are Senator Ben Nelson and Congressman Tim Walz. Both have been contacted. Both I believe want to come. It is a matter of scheduling . Hopefully we will hear soon from them about their availability. If any of you at any time wish to talk to me about this meeting please contact me. anbpettigrew@msn.com or 402-376-1708, 402-322-0227. Bud Pettigrew NDP Chair of Chairs.
Just a quick up date. Senator Nelson emailed today. He will not be able to come to the meeting. He is scheduled to go somewhere else.
