It’s been an active month for the Sharf campaign. We’re embarked on an aggressive walking schedule, and in spite of some weather-related difficulties, we’ve knocked on over 1,500 doors already, and completed walking through four precincts.
We’re starting a busy season of neighborhood meet-and-greets and fundraisers. We have three already scheduled, and have at least twice that many in the works over the next couple of months. I can’t tell you how heartening it is for me and all the volunteers to see such enthusiasm for the campaign. We’ve also been coordinating these events (and our walking) with Fallon for Congress, making good on the need for teamwork among all our candidates.
I want to welcome two new volunteers to our campaign staff. Anne Nichting has agreed to be our scheduler, keeping track of walking and making sure I always have something to do. Anne’s new to politics, and her enthusiasm has been a real boost. Kathy Bashari has taken on coordinating events and helping me reach out to donors. Kathy is the development director at the Denver Academy of Torah, and will be a splendid addition to the team.
Money remains the mother’s milk of politics, and any contribution you can make helps us get our message out to the district’s voters. Please click on here, and contribute $5, $10, $25, or whatever you can afford (although not more than $400) to help us win in November!
I’ve added another plank to the campaign platform – one of the most important: Education. Instead of the traditional approach, we need to be thinking creatively from government’s point of view, and encouraging our education providers to do the same in their role.
We’re continuing our new addition to the Backbone Radio franchise, Backbone Business. This week, we’ll be looking at financial bubbles. Be sure to listen to the Backbone Business broadcast this Sunday evening (June 20) at 7:00 PM, on 710AM KNUS in Denver, or 1460AM KZNT in Colorado Springs.
See you on the trail,
Joshua
