For 22 years, people who want to learn more about how government works, about the people we elect to work for us, and how to effect change gather at the end of January in the lower level of the First United Methodist Church.
They wander around before the workshop begins, munching bagels and clutching cups of coffee, chatting with old friends and, as often as not, being interrupted and introduced to someone new.
At the Citizens in Action workshop, two things are valued: what you know and who you know. And organizers want to make sure everyone has plenty of access to knowledge and introductions.
Registration for the event is free, but they need a head count (so they don't run out of bagels). More information and the registration form is here.
