Midwestern Ontario needs more women in politics.
There is an upcoming opportunity for women to learn about the process of engaging in politics and making a difference locally. 2018 is an election year for municipal councils and school boards.
A "Campaign School For Women" is scheduled for Saturday, November 4 at the Bluewater District School Board offices in Chesley.
The day includes experienced local presenters in areas of running a successful campaign, using traditional and social media, public speaking and debating, and the role of a school board trustee.
To register for the day, go to the website www.runjanerun.ca, or call Pat Farrar 519-376-1542.
The cost is $20, and it runs from 9:30am to 3:30pm.
The keynote speaker is Brenda Halloran, a former two-term mayor of Waterloo with a varied career and community service resume.
