March 30 and 31st NCSU College Democrats is hosting Campus Camp Wellstone. Campus Camp Wellstone is a progressive 1.5 day training program designed to teach students the basic principles and the practical skills of grassroots organizing. Campus Camp Wellstone is for young people focused on skills for organizing effectively, not just about the issue. It's a chance for students to take a step back, realize their passions, and then think of themselves as organizers around that passion. Highly recommended for anyone with that electric charge of social organizing. We need YOU to help bring Camp Wellstone to NC State.
