Meet Melissa Thompson – Leading CPAC Events in NSW

Last week we announced our new State Event Managers - the first step in building CPAC into a truly national movement. Each state organising committee is made up of committed volunteers whose leadership has been elected by Club CPAC members. These are people who stand ready to engage their communities, unite like-minded Australians in their state, and act boldly to protect liberty and opportunity for all. In case you missed last week's announcement, here are the three new State Event Managers: New South Wales Melissa Thompson nsw@cpac.network Queensland Railene Turner qld@cpac.network Victoria Greg Cheesman vic@cpac.network This is how we build a real grassroots movement - from the ground up. We shared Greg Cheesman's mission statement last week. This week, the spotlight is on Railene Turner who shares her motivation for getting involved with CPAC.

Here at CPAC, we're pumped to announce that CPAC has officially formed our first three state-based organising committees in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. This is a major step forward in making CPAC a truly national and uncancelable force.  Each committee is led by a new State Events Manager who will work with the other committee members to articulate our values through grassroots local events, speaker tours, rallies, and more - all the things we know conservatives across Australia are calling for. Expanding our footprint is how we engage our communities and unite our voices to defend liberty and opportunity for all. Given the prospect of six more years of a hard-left political agenda, we believe now is the time to act . Keeping with our values, belief in liberal democracy and grassroots culture, Club CPAC members and volunteers voted to select their new committee representatives in each state. We're proud to introduce three outstanding individuals chosen to lead the charge: New South Wales Melissa Thompson nsw@cpac.network Queensland Railene Turner qld@cpac.network Victoria Greg Cheesman vic@cpac.network Congratulations to each of them and the team elected to work with them! We're confident they'll help engage more Australians, unite our grassroots networks and act boldly to advance CPAC's mission of protecting liberty and opportunity for all. If you'd like to help bring a CPAC event to your state, I encourage you to use the contact emails above to reach out to your local State Events Manager. These committees are the vanguard of our nationwide expansion, and we will plan to start committees in South Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania. We will introduce you to a new team member each week. This week, the spotlight is on Greg Cheesman, who shares his motivation for getting involved with CPAC.
