IYD Gives Back: Collections for Flood Victims at the State ConventionIYD will be collecting food and other items for flood victims as part of our convention caucus activities. Here are the items listed as "most needed":
IYD Caucus at State ConventionThe State convention is tomorrow at the Marriott in downtown Indianapolis. Elections for IYD executive board will be held during the Indiana Young Democrat Caucus. The caucus will be held from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the Capitol II room at the Westin Hotel. (This hotel is located right next to the Marriott and I believe you may not even have to walk outside to get to it.) In order to vote in this election you must be a dues paying member of the Indiana Young Democrats. You can pay your dues online with any major credit or debit card.
