League Program Planning is more than planning and attending a program.
It is the foundation of the League’s public policy positions upon which the League’s advocacy is based.

In addition to reviewing the national positions, it’s time for LWVHC members to review the LWVHC positions. You will find the positions in your Annual Meeting Kit. The consensus process for developing local positions is the same as that used for the national level.

The League’s Public Policy Positions and Program Planning Surveys are included as an insert in the January VOTER; the local positions are in your Annual Meeting Kit.

National and Local Program Planning surveys are also in the January VOTER, complete them and/or bring them to the meeting.

The Rhododendron Parade has been rescued and there is hope that the floats will wind up at Redwood Acres on April 26, coincidentally the first day of the Artists, Artisans & Crafters Spring Fever Festival being held there. We thought it would be a lovely place for a voter registration and information table just three weeks before the close of registration. We've signed up to be there from 10-5 on Saturday and 10-4 on Sunday, April 27.

Fifty Years ago President Eisenhower proclaimed the first Law Day: a “day of national dedication to the principle of government under law.”
On May 1 celebrate the 50th anniversary of Law Day with your League when we host an opportunity for the public to meet its Superior Court Judges. The Superior Court is a trial court in which a judge or jury decides a case by looking at evidence and listening to facts and then applying the law. Citizens, as jurors, are vital to the process.

Get out in the redwoods on a Sunday afternoon, help earn some money for the League, and give much appreciated aid to this year’s runners. We need about ten people to pour water, cut up oranges, and make sure we leave the Avenue beautiful. We set up our table about 10 A.M. and usually have a tailgate lunch about 1 P.M., clean up the site and then we're free to enjoy the rest of the day.
League volunteers earn $150 to $200 for the League and receive their own Avenue tee shirt (no sweatshirts this year, sorry!). Please sign up now if you can help, and I will confirm with you closer to the date. Call me at 442-7495. Leave your name, contact number and tee shirt size, as your shirt must be pre-ordered to be at the aid station on May 4. I'm looking forward to a great day. Remember, NO experience necessary!
