Texarkana, TX Activist Training

June 18, 2010

Our nation was founded by ordinary citizen activists desiring a government that was accountable to the people.  Today, ordinary citizens across our nation are tired of the status quo and ready to engage for the betterment of their communities. American Majority’s political training addresses these passions by providing education and resources to help you meet your goals.

American Majority and the Bowie County Patriots ( www.bowiecountypatriots.com) are pleased to announce an Activist Training will be conducted on Saturday, July 10th in Texarkana to provide citizens with the tools necessary to become effective activists.

The political training will take place at the Joe’s Barbeque of 300 E New Boston Rd, Nash, TX (just outside of Texarkana) from 10am to 3pm.  Registration opens at 9:30pm.  The cost is $20 online and $25 at the door. Lunch will be provided.  Space is limited.  Pre-registration is strongly encouraged.

Scholarships are being offered to attendees under the age of 21. If you are interested in more information, please contact Jeff Akin: jeff@1530thelight.com.
