Two years ago DFA came to Casanovia, NY and provided a weekend training seminar. One attendee, Valerie Keehn, took what she learned and lead a Democratic sweep as she became Mayor of Saratoga Springs, NY.

Last year, DFA came to South Glens Falls and provided a compressed one-day seminar mostly for folks that went on to volunteer for the Congressional Campaign of Kirsten Gillibrand. Gillibrand became the first Democrat to represent this area in Congress in 30 years and the first woman ever.

There is plenty of room left but they are filling up fast! Be sure to RSVP right away!

Peace,
