Your school board campaign is a part of large organized team of dedicated individuals.  Successful campaigns are the product of an organized and motivated team working together.  While you may be the candidate, it is the effort of the volunteers along with you that is the key to winning.  Working now to identify the key volunteers will allow the campaign team to focus on getting votes as you get closer to the election.   
        
    While beginning the organization phase, it is important to understand that one person cannot handle all the work of a campaign.  That includes you, the candidate.  In the enthusiasm of the run, it is easy to stretch yourself too thin.  You are a resource – a limited resource – and should focus your energy on meeting voters and raising the necessary money to win the election.  Forming committees and appointing chairpersons can be a way to lessen the load.
