Estimated attendance:  8  people attended.

(This is a test group. If people think there is a need for it to continue, we plan on moving outside to Civic Center Park next spring to create a weekly or monthly Speaker's Corner similar to what they've had for years in London.)

We now meet monthly, join us Feb 1 to just listen or to share your passion with us!

Right now, our primary purpose is to increase informed participation in the over 6000 Colorado neighborhood bi-annual meetings (caucuses) that will be held in the February of 2008. Did you go in 2006? If so, come and share your experience with us. If not, come and learn how to be a part of it next February 5.


HOW WE STARTED

The Action Class in Practical Politics workshop gave many, many in Colorado their start in political leadership, we've updated it for the MTV generation! We are also influenced by the original purpose of the Denver City Club, which was to introduce young people to the political leaders of Denver.

Newcomers who want to get involved are invited to meet each month with political leaders from the right and from the left, from major political parties, and from political action groups talk about what they are doing and how to get involved.

WHAT WE'RE DOING AT YOUR NEXT MEETING

Information will be distributed about how to become a delegate to the 2008 National Conventions, one of which is going to be held right here in Denver! For handy links to all Presidential campaigns and the major political parties, see PoliticsWest at http://www.politicswe....

We'll hear from you if you want to take a turn on the soap box to tell us about your Colorado Caucus experience, your favorite candidate or issues, or anything else that is on your mind! Or just come and listen. RSVP, especially if you can't be with us Feb 5 so you'll get an invitation with the day, time, and place of our next meeting.

Join us! If you have any questions, contact John Wren at JohnSWren@aol.com or (303)861-1447.

       Very good discussion about the caucuses and the Denver GOP convention/assembly. Lots of talk about the Texas Two Step system and if it might be good for Colorado. Group decided to change our name to the Denver Speakers Corner and to change the meeting time and place. Starting in April we'll meet the Sunday after the first Friday, 4 p.m. at the North end of Civic Center Park. Bring your own soap box!
