Camp Wellstone: Seattle

Camp Wellstone is divided into three tracks:

• Activist track: For people interested in citizen lobbying, issue advocacy, and community organizing, this track provides skills in how to win on issues.
• Campaign track: This track focuses on how to be an effective staff or volunteer member of a winning progressive campaign.
• Candidate track: This is for people who have made the decision to run for office (or are exploring the possibility of running in the near future).

The cost of Camp Wellstone is based on a sliding-scale based on ability to pay; we are committed to keeping this training accessible to all. If you are able to cover the full cost of your participation in this training, please do so as this will help us continue to train progressives across the country; otherwise, you choose the option that works best for you. Rates are as follows: $200, $100, or $50. This fee covers one of our books, Politics the Wellstone Way (activist track) andWinning Your Election the Wellstone Way (campaign and candidate tracks), materials, and three meals during the weekend.

The training will be held at Seattle Pacific University; participants are responsible for their own accommodations. Further details will be sent no later than two weeks in advance of the training.
