SUMMARY:Building Community
DESCRIPTION:Building Community in Clay will meet Sunday\, January 4th\, 4pm\, at The Corner Coffee Shop.  After a holiday break to enjoy the season\, it’s time to get back at it.  At least some of this first meeting of 2026 will be planning out the year to the midterms.  We have decisions to be made and we need YOU to help us do that.  If you’ve been following our emails\, step up your game and attend a meeting.  I promise you will be glad you did! \nAbout Building Community\nBuilding Community is a non-partisan monthly event intended to build strength within our own community to fight back against attempts to weaken our Democracy.  After the last election many of us have been experiencing a range of emotions— anger\, frustration\, disappointment\, uncertainty—and that these feelings can sometimes feel isolating.  Please know that you are not alone and that we are much stronger as a group.  Please join us the first Sunday of each month at 4:00 PM at the Corner Coffee Shop (MJs) in Hayesville for educational presentations\, riveting discussion\, and practical actions we can take to strengthen our community and our Democracy. \nFeel free to bring a to bring a personal snack and/or drink\, or finger foods if you wish to share. \nNOTE: Although Building Community is a local event addressing issues originating from our community members\, we have an affiliation with the national group\, Indivisible due to the overlap of common goals.  We believe we can learn\, grow\, and share more effectively with this affiliation.
