The Alabama Democratic Party’s 2023 Training and Planning Session for County Executive Committees in the Northeast region was conducted on Saturday, February 18, 2023. The Calhoun County Democratic Executive Committee hosted the training at our HQ, 812 Noble Street, Anniston, AL.
Alabama Democratic Party Vice Chair for County Affairs, Ben Harris (pictured below speaking), said the regional meetings would act as a 'refresher' on the basics and the most important aspects of building our county parties, and would allow individuals to come together to exchange ideas and to collaborate on how we best can build our parties at the grassroots level.
The recently updated and renamed Alabama County Executive Committee Manual was distributed and thoroughly reviewed.
