5/25 Meeting

We had a great introductory meeting yesterday, and there were several new faces (Welcome Ann, Thomas, Chris, Belinda and Kurt). We discussed ways of getting involved in the coming months- particularly when the Obama campaign opens an office here in Florida, organizing, canvassing, the opening of the Orlando4Obama office on Colonial Dr., and our personal reasons for supporting the campaign.
