The Greenville team took Democracy NC to the lights of G-vegas as we made our first tv appearance! Oh yea other teams, be jealous! Pastor Rodney Coles of the Children of God Church was our delightful host for his weekly segment of Churches Outreach Network. Our tv debut was definitely the highlight of our week (though it took us 40 minutes to find the station– thanks Tia!) and the three of us are looking forward to our 3am running of CON on Cable 7.
The Greenville team is also excitingly planning our first ever open house for Pitt County. On Thursday July 9th, Brittany, Tia, and I are going to spend a couple of hours partying it up with people who care about voter rights and campaign finance issues and we hopefully will be able expand our mission to the people of Pitt County!
We also spoke to the Greenville Youth Council about the pre-registering teenagers to vote and they were all really supportive. It was cook to see their minds working as they planned ways to get the word out to their peers about the importance of voting and the pre-registration bill.
After Camp Wellstone this weekend, this week sure felt long, but, looking back, we got a lot accomplished and I’m incredibly proud of how the Greenville team is helping to develop Pitt County into a more progressive area and I’m excited to see all we will produce while we’re here.
