Hello Everyone,

I hope everyone is doing well! Last week, we had our “Young Dems Meeting.”

We had Masha Anderson, Chair of the UW-Milwaukee College Dems and Southeastern Regional Director for College Dems of Wisconsin, along with Ben Stepanek, Chair of UW-Oshkosh College Dems and former Northeastern Regional Director for College Dems of Wisconsin, speak about the importance of getting involved in political issues.

I also continued making calls to invite people to our upcoming event in Germantown and our upcoming “social media training.”

If anyone is unable to attend the social media classes about “Facebook,” “Twitter,” “Instagram” and “Snapchat,” please contact me and I will be happy to have a one-on-one class with you!

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at autumnlinsmeier@gmail.com or 920-973-5521—or stop by for a visit at our Dem Office at 132 North Main Street in West Bend.
