So Many Invitations so Little Time

In an effort to give you a little inside information from a Delegate I thought I would share with you some of the invitations to events that I have received. Tomorrow I am meeting with the fab five and a few more to try and plan our convention schedule. As for the fab five we named ourselves the fab five because we went have traveled to a couple of states to help with "get out the vote (GOTV) activities and wherever we went, Sen. Clinton won. (I will blog about how I was elected as a delegate soon). As for the invitations they are:
Emily's List - Women Vote to celebrate the 88th Anniversary of Women's Suffrage with guest speakers: Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama (RSVP'd to this one- $50
Women's Equality Tea- Eleanor Smeal, Kim Gandy, Dolores Huerta, E. Faye Williams, Dr. Elizabeth Clark (Passing on this one- As much as I would love to go it is $150 bucks- I little steep for this delegate).
Unconventional Women - this is 6 hour training about running for office. Since I run Emerge Arizona a training program to train women to run for office I like to find out what others train on. I have RSVP's it is a give what you can event.

Emerge America (an organization I am proud of will host a lunch for Emerge graduates and board members who will be at the convention). We are now in 7 states. Will be great to meet everyone. I will be there since I am the contact person).
There are events with the College Democrats, the Young Democrats and Emerging Democrat Leaders.

I also have some invites for receptions from local political consultants many who I have worked with.
This is just a sample which I wanted to share with you. Not everything is free and there is something for everyone. Some events are educational and some events are just entertainment.
