YG68 Delegation Bulletin #7: The Short One‏

Meeting Schedule this week:
6:00pm Officers Meeting - come with public service project, T&EI Friendship service ideas, and social event ideas
6:30pm-7:30pm Regular meeting. Bring bill research and drafts.

1.) Bill Sponsors: By Monday, October 12, you need to email me a bill worksheet (see your email for attachments) and draft language of your bill. It doesn't have to be perfect, but you have to take a stab at it. Bill sponsors who do not comply with this requirement risk not being able to proceed with their bills.

2. ) Meeting Schedule: Please make a note in your calendar that we are adding a special Monday meeting on November 2 to prepare for our Bill Hearing Night on November 4th! We have very few meetings between now and bill hearing night, please make note of this schedule. While they may not all say "mandatory" please treat them that way. This is the most work-heavy part of the program year at meetings, so attendance is important. Your team is counting on you:
Oct 14 - Bill groups have initial bill language an assign lobbyists for and against their bills. Learn about committee process and time limits.
Oct 21 - Bill groups have final bill language and sponsors, lobbyists have draft speeches prepared.
Oct 28 - Bill groups have final bill language, worksheets, and all have final speeches prepared.
Nov 2 (MONDAY) - Full Bill Hearing Night Dress rehearsal; Pre-conference information. MANDATORY MEETING
Nov 4 (Wednesday) - Bill Hearing Night at Historic City Hall 915 I Street. Delegates arrive at 5:30pm; Bill Hearing Night begins as 6pm. MANDATORY.
Nov 11 - No Meeting
Nov 13-15 - Training & Elections Conference I, Fresno

3.) Bear Valley Volunteer Weekend: Not ready to let go of summer yet? You're in luck! There's a great volunteer opportunity for delegates and their families at the YMCA's resident camp on October 17. Come camp for the weekend or stay for the day. Bring your hammer and your work gloves. We'll provide the food and campfire. Register here: bit.ly/BearValleyVolunteers

4.) GroupMe: Your delegation leadership uses the GroupMe app to communicate important reminders and updates, especially during conferences. We'll be adding you to this app. Look for a text message from us, soon. You can download the free GroupMe app for Apple or Android or you can use it through your text messaging system.
