Newly minted alum seeks interns!

Stephen Sparks, class of 2008 is running a state legislative race in Vancouver WA and is looking for interns. Read on and isn't is amazing how our alums hit the ground running--

For anybody going home to the Portland area for the summer, here is a great internship opportunity. Tim Probst is a Democrat challenging a Republican incumbent for State Representative in Vancouver, WA (District 17, position 1). The campaign is up and running full speed and Tim has a great prospect of winning the seat this year - the incumbent is the most vulnerable in the state legislature.

The campaign is looking to bring on interns for the Summer - small state legislative races are a great way to get well-rounded experience, because you see all aspects of the campaign rather than just one specific area like finance or doorbelling. No prior experience necessary, although you should be committed to furthering progressive values and ready to take on at least 10 hours per week. The internship is unpaid, but you will get a great learning experience and a great recommendation from Tim for your hard work. If interested, please contact steven@electtimprobst.com.
