Kansas Farm Bureau’s (KFB) Campaign School will hold a mini session Thursday, Sept. 4 in Great Bend at American AgCredit, designed to show current office holders, future candidates, campaign managers and volunteer leaders on how to mount a successful campaign.
“Putting your name on the ballot for any public office is the first step of many before raising your hand and swearing your oath of office,” KFB’s Director of Political Affairs Brenden Wirth says. “KFB’s Campaign School can help you take crucial steps to give you a winning advantage on Election Day. This program has been used across the nation with candidates winning more than 80 percent of their races.”
This nonpartisan, unbiased program offers in-depth instruction from national, state and local political experts on topics like strategy, tactics, selecting issues, budgeting, fundraising and identifying voters.
KFB Campaign School was designed to give potential candidates a solid foundation as they seek elected office. It also offers incumbents an opportunity to enhance their campaign skills.
Mini sessions are condensed opportunities to learn the fundamentals of campaign management skills and cost $60 for KFB members and $85 for nonmembers. Up to 20 participants can take part in each session.
