Cooperative to sponsor Campaign Academy

The Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives announced that it will hold a Campaign Academy on April 23, 2010, at the OREC headquarters in Columbus. It is open to any candidate running for public office this fall.

The Campaign Academy was created jointly by the Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Assocation to help individuals seeking public office to sharpen their political skills and prepare for the rigors of the campaign trail whether it be for local school board, city council, county office, state, or federal office.

The school is open to candidates of any political party and will feature seasoned campaign veterans and professionals focusing on the following core areas: fundraising, campaign strategy, mesage develpment, and communication skills. Attendees will also learn about campaign rules and regulations from the Ohio Secretary of State's office.

There will be a $25 charge for attending the Campaign Academy, which will include lunch. To register and receive more information, contact Marc Armstrong at 614-430-7864 or email him at marmstrong@buckeyepower.com.
