SUMMARY:Spring Fellows - Weekend Four
DESCRIPTION:We begin Saturday’s session with one of the most important topics of campaigns – fundraising\, with 2012 Fall Fellow\, Chris McCoy. Fundraising is an essential ingredient of all campaigns—large and small—and usually is the component most candidates and campaigns struggle with. Chris will help us explore the essentials of effective fundraising strategy and the techniques he recommends for putting that strategy into action. \n \nIn the afternoon\, we learn about the foundations of liberal and conservative thought\, featuring Chris Fitzsimon\, Political Consultant and Director of The Newsroom\, and John Hood\, President of the John William Pope Foundation. This discussion and your interaction with Chris and John are intended to broaden our understanding of the school of thought that underlies electoral politics in the U.S. and to lay a foundation for a continuing civil dialogue and constructive debate of policy options. They will also discuss the role of “think tanks” and share some information about their organizations – what they do and how they do it.

SUMMARY:NC IOPL Hometown Debates – Newton
DESCRIPTION:In the fall of 2016\, IOPL hosted our first Hometown Debate series with televised debates in Wilson (Lt. Governor)\, Asheboro (Attorney General)\, and Statesville (Treasurer). We felt it was important to ensure that North Carolina’s smaller cities and towns were brought into the conversation about these races and their issues addressed. \nAs this is not an election year for statewide offices\, we’ve decided to choose a singular topic and host three debates\, again in our smaller communities. We will be focusing on three questions regarding NC’s public education system. \nTuesday\, October 24th \nOld Post Office Playhouse – Newton\, NC \nShould performance play more of a role in North Carolina teacher compensation?\nPanelists: \n\nMatt Ellinwood\, NC Justice Center\nTerry Stoops\, John Locke Foundation\nNC State Representative\, Craig Horn\nNC State Representative\, Susan Fisher\n\nAll debates begin at 7:00 p.m. with the doors opening at 6:30 p.m. \nREGISTRATION TO ATTEND
