Getting the word out...
A picture is worth a thousand words....
After your visit share your photos with your elected official, local media, and Take 5 Wisconsin.
After your visit, please wrap-up your conversation with a "Thank you." Just a few ideas on what you might want to write...
Dear __________,

Dear __________,
Our family enjoyed meeting you at the park. It was thoughtful of you to take the time to listen to our story and concerns for the future. We look forward to working with you as you represent our city.
Thank you,
A heart-felt "Thank you" always leaves a lasting impression so please send a note that truly reflects your experience with the elected official you visit with. Our hope is that you will establish a relationship with your locally elected officials/policymakers that will continue beyond 2007
