Help us meet the challenge to keep the voice of the elected neighborhood representative relevant in a signature-gathering world.
You’re invited.
Maybe you’ve heard about “caucus night” or party conventions and wondered what actually happens in those rooms—who runs the meeting, what the roles are, and how neighbors end up volunteering for them. If that sounds familiar, this evening is for you.
We host plain-English, workshops that walk through the basics: what a caucus is, how conventions fit into the bigger picture, and what common volunteer roles—like precinct chair, secretary, or delegate—actually do. No prior experience needed. We’ll keep the jargon to a minimum and the examples practical.
You’ll arrive with curiosity and maybe a few questions. You’ll leave with a clear picture of how a typical meeting flows (yes, we’ll demystify the Robert’s Rules part), what responsibilities come with each role, and how to participate respectfully and effectively—whether you’re observing for the first time or considering a volunteer position.
Bring your questions; if you know your precinct or district, bring that too—though it’s not required. We’ll share a short handout with key terms, a simple meeting checklist, and pointers to trustworthy resources so you can keep learning after you go home.
If you’ve ever thought, “I want to participate—but I’m not sure where to start,” this is a relaxed, welcoming place to begin.

- Role of a State Delegate (Be a part of the process that determines our State Party's candidates) Learn the ins and outs of electing State Party leadership while vetting & electing federal legislative and state executive Party candidates.
- Your role as a member of the County Central Committee (The CCC is the policy making body of the County Party) The Central Committee is probably your most important role as you craft county party policy. Learn how you make motions, debate and amend those motions while voting to determine party policy.

- Running an effective Caucus (Precinct Chair's role and responsibilities) Review the rules, roles and goals of an effective caucus and participate in a mock Caucus meeting to learn the ropes.

All of these roles require a level of understanding in order to be effective, and that is where our training comes in. By introducing the process along with roles and responsibilities, we hope to install faith and confidence in each elected member’s effort to participate. We believe knowledge of your roles and responsibilities will result in moving closer to our stated conservative principles.
In order to give you a better chance of participating, we will schedule training at 2 County Libraries, Ogden and Roy. All rooms are reserved from 6:00pm – 9:00pm. Training will be from 6:30pm – 8:30pm with some time for questions and lingering. All rooms will comfortably hold 80 - 100 attendees. The Public is invited. Tell a friend.
