Have you always aspired to one day find yourself sitting in the Oval Office? Maybe your democratic dreams are of helping your city or state through your service. Either way, we have a must-attend event for all those who dream of taking a political path – Practical Politics coming up on Tuesday, Oct. 8 at the OKC Zoo. Every other year, the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber tracks down some of our region’s political experts and gathers them in a room to help folks like you learn the ropes of running a successful campaign.
This year’s keynote speaker is former Oklahoma governor George Nigh who served our great state from 1979 through 1987. Other topics and their speakers include:
- How to Effectively Raise Campaign Funds - Rep. Scott Inman, Democratic House Minority Leader
- Running a Successful Campaign: Wining Local, Statewide & Congressional Elections - Pat McFerron, CMA Strategies
- How to Comply with State Election and Ethics Laws - Lee Slater, Executive Director, Oklahoma Ethics Commission
- How to Be a Good Candidate and Elected Official - Nick Massey, Edmond City Councilman, and Laura Massenat, Oklahoma City Public Schools Board Member
The cost to attend this event is $35 for members of the Chamber and $45 for non-members. If you’re a college student with valid student ID, the event is free! What a steal!
