If you're a current LWVOC member, join us to select our League Program for 2010. We're counting on valuable input from you!

Last year 60 members joined us for this half day brainstorming session.
Discussion will focus on issues that:

  • fall within League principles
  • present an opportunity for action
  • require a government solution or action
  • draw broadbase league support
  • stand to gain from league
  • support/involvement
  • offer a partnership role for the League with other organizations

LWVOC Program for 2009-2010
