You're invited: campaign kickoff July 11

Quick Tuesday update. Three things: the parades, our kickoff party, and the start of canvassing season.

The parades

Good news first. We have enough people to walk in the Delaware, Westerville, and Sunbury parades. Thank you. We could still use more hands in all three, but Orange is where we really need you.

If you live in the Powell or Lewis Center area, this is your call. The Democratic Party is walking, and we are marching right alongside them with the wagon. We need a handful of people to wear our T-shirts, and two people to carry our banner.

Please recruit your friends. A few more bodies in each spot makes all the difference. Sign up here: ryangrissinger.com/parade

Campaign kickoff party, July 11

This is the fun one. If you can make it, please RSVP: ryangrissinger.com/party

Our live band is confirmed. Food is still coming together, but we're planning on mac and cheese, pizza, sandwiches, and birthday cake. We expect several other candidates to join us, and we want a packed room. Bring your friends.

Canvassing season is here

Knocking on doors wins local races. I just secured a full VoteBuilder account, and I am building the data and walk lists right now. Strategic details are coming soon, so stay tuned.

Here's how you can help. If you've canvassed before, especially if you've helped plan an effort like this one, please reach out to me directly. I want your experience at the table.

Everybody else, commit to knocking a few doors in your own neighborhood. Start small. Your own street, maybe five or ten houses on each side, or across the way, whatever your block looks like. We grow out from there. You'll get a map of your neighborhood, a list of the best doors to knock, and a simple playbook with exactly what to say when someone answers.

New materials are on the way too. Palm cards, door hangers, yard signs, and more. A lot is happening. Stay tuned.

Thanks for everything you do.
