Hi Jim,

I remember after the 2012 elections feeling an aching lack of closure.

Yes, we had many huge and thrilling wins, but as with all election cycles, it was suddenly over, and I was separated almost instantly from the intensely satisfying work and the many friends I had made.

That's where RootsCamp came in.

RootsCamp wasn't on my radar until a couple of friends mentioned that they were going. I leapt at the chance to see them again, and set about organizing myself into a plane ticket and a room to share. It was one of the best, most healing things I've ever done.

I hope you'll join me at RootsCamp this year in DC. Buy your ticket now >>

I was honored to be voted NOI's Most Valuable Organizer of 2012. When I walked to the stage to accept the award, I was overwhelmed.

But when I turned to the audience, I saw before me thousands of organizers who together -- through great dedication and hard work -- changed our country for the better.

RootsCamp gave me amazing perspective, and gave us all the priceless chance to learn from each other, grow stronger, and get inspired all over again. I am forever grateful and wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Don't miss out -- make sure to buy your RootsCamp ticket now.

It was wonderful to be able to celebrate together, share, and to recognize the dedicated work of my fellow organizers last year -- and I hope I can count on you to join me in December to do it again.

Thanks,

Laura
