Do YOU Have an Appetite for Politics?

• Do you have an “appetite for politics”--the process of shaping our community and world? 
• If you contribute to WEA-PAC (or will be) OR if you joined the effort to elect a School Board that RESPECTS educators, then you are invited to: 

 Appetite for Politics 

(MEET OTHERS, SHARE YOUR IDEAS, ENJOY! This is NOT a meeting…read on...) 

Tuesday, November 15, from 3:30 to 6:30 pm: Drop by or stay. Very short program at 4:15. 

What Appetite for Politics IS:
A social event for politically-minded NSEA, NESPA, and NEOPA members to meet and talk with others in an informal setting. At our inaugural gathering, we’ll discuss the School Board race and what the results mean for us moving forward; the proposed education budget cuts and our Day of Action on Nov.28; and any other topics you want to share with others who attend. Appetizers and beverages will be served!

What Appetite for Politics ISN’T:
A formal meeting! We won’t ask you to do anything except show up, eat, drink, and talk to your like-minded colleagues. We won’t have a structured agenda. We will not be endorsing particular political candidates or asking for political contributions. Talk, listen, learn, and enjoy each other!

When? 
Tuesday, November 15, 2011 from 3:30 to 6:30 pm. We’ll have a brief program around 4:15 pm. Come when you can. Stay until you want to leave.

Where? 
The WEA/Cascade UniServ Council Office located at 18704 Bothell Way NE, Suite 101, Bothell, WA--across from Pop Keeney. Click here for directions.
