Recap of 2nd Meeting

For those of you who couldn't make it to the last meeting, here is a good recap.

First of all, we were visited by Democratic nominee Adam Smith who is running for 2nd district US Representative. He is one of the youngest candidates, only 26, in all of the Kentucky races. His website is http://www.1kyliberal.com/ and will be posted with other candidates' sites in a seperate sidebar soon. Next, State Representative Roger Thomas visited us. We were there for only a little while with him when he promised pizza for us at the next meeting (yes!)

These two candidates are very supportive of us and we need to back them up in their campaigns.

After that we elected our leaders, and here is the list.

President - Kyle Gott
Vice President - Laura Kessel
Secretary - Jonathan Boyd
Treasurer - Kevin Mercer
Public Relations - Sarah Cecil
