Louisville Office hosts neighborhood bash
Last weekend the Jefferson County Chapter held an open house at their new office in Butchertown to meet with their neighbors and introduce them to KFTC. Here is a report from Jessica G.:
The Louisville Open House was really amazing. We had tons of free chili (with grass-fed, all natural, local beef and organic ingredients from a local health food store that was prepared by the locally acclaimed chef program at the Salvation Army), pimento cheese and crackers (from a local butchertown deli that uses local cheese), Havana Cola (a local Butchertown Cola company that uses natural ingredients) and coffee from a Butchertown coffeeshop (Jackson's Organic Coffee). We also had a Latin musician, a Folk musican, a Hip-Hop artist and a bluegrass band. We had booths and information from allies, Local Butchertown artists sold their stuff, we had a Greese Car that served as the street blockade, a flameworking glass demonstration and a Cornhole Tournament with a trophy.
We raised about $450 in memberships and merch sales and signed up 14 new members. There was a really good mix of people who were already members who just wanted to see the office and local Butchertown folks who we met at their door. Several people raved about the Voter Guide.
We've uploaded some photos of the open house that you can look at here. We hope to have some more up soon.
