Looking Forward

With the next YDA National Convention approaching, the YDAHSC Executive Board is fast at work. We have been working on several specific goals including renovating our web site, electing leaders to our vacant leadership positions, planning for the New Hampshire convention, and developing a regional plan that will allow us to reach out to high school democrats in every state. 

We have a brilliant Director of Technology, Stephen Yellin, who is helping us develop our web site. We hope to give hs dems opportunities to work on a 2008 Democratic presidential candidates campaign, find out about local Democratic activities in their area, and provide them with ideas to strengthen YDAHSC chapters. Our new Director of Action, Erich Reimer, will play an influential role in these endeavors.

Currently we have several vacant leadership positions that are vital to the caucus. These include: 1. Treasurer, 2. Director of Conferences and Conventions, 3. Director of High School Chapters, 4. Director of Campaigns, 5. South East Regional Director, 6. Midwest Regional Director, 7. Great Lakes Regional Director, and 8. South Central Regional Director. If you are interested in applying for any of these important positions please e-mail me at ACFroio@aol.com. 

November 16-18 in Manchester, New Hampshire is the official date of the next YDA National Conference. The YDAHSC will meet at this conference for business, for learning, and of course, for socializing. It is going to be one of the most exciting conferences in recent history since the spirit of the 2008 elections practically palpable. Our caucus is working on getting a speaker, and possibly organizing a training session for this event. Charlie Dann, our Vice Chair of Political Affairs is currently working hard on accomplishing this.

If you are interested in partaking in this rewarding event, sign-up today at the YDA web site: 


With an historical election coming up, there has never been a better time to be a young Democrat. During the weeks before the New Hampshire conference, I will be updating relevant information on this subject. I hope that you join us, so together, we can rock history.

Democratically Yours,

Alicia Froio
Chair
YDAHSC
