If you haven't been able to attend an all-day Bill White University training session at the Bill White headquarters in Houston,  you will benefit from this Bill White Community College, a shorter (3 hours), local (Webster) Bill White volunteer training program.

Program segments includes the following:

• Block walking training:  presented by Sherry and Mark Weesner, CJ Farley and Cheryl Germain.  We will have an opportunity to divide up and practice on each other after the presentation.
• Virtual phone bank familiarization:  by John Cobarruvias, a VAN trainer for the State Democratic Party.
• Phone bank training:  by Kris Banks.
• Strategy overview for the Bill White effort along with problems and opportunities in specific parts of our area using data from the '08 election cycle: by Suzy Allison.
• Issues, talking points, and charges and rebuttals:  by Bob Tomlinson.
• Plans for Bay Area headquarters and an opportunity to sign up to help:  by CJ Farley.   
• Information on all nearby headquarters will be provided.

We hope this will be informative and give volunteers the comfort and confidence you need to get to work  to ELECT BILL WHITE OUR NEXT GOVERNOR.

We'd like some clue as to how many will attend, so RSVP to Suzy Allison at suzy.allison@att.net, but feel free to come if you didn't get around to replying.
