Ken Klein for Council hasn't added a story.

Dear Family and Friends,

Happy New Year! I trust this message finds you well, and that you and your family are enjoying the spirits of this holiday season. After many months of discussion with my family and my wife Juliana, I write to tell you about my interest in running for Snohomish County Council, District 1. This will be a big campaign, much larger than my Arlington city council race and I ask you to join me as an initial investor to launch this campaign.

Briefly, this position on Snohomish County Council is a full-time job, representing 120,000 people in the northern part of the county. Councilmembers if elected run every four years. Council members are responsible for managing and prioritizing the $649 million budget. This position represents the communities of Arlington, Darrington, Granite Falls, Marysville, & Stanwood.

You may be asking why I wish to take on this challenge and the answer is simple: to continue to foster livable and beautiful communities in our county where all of us can work, live and raise our families. I’m so proud to be a 5th generation Snohomish County boy and I wish to do my part in public service to make our county even stronger for my children and their grandchildren. With my business experience as an Operations Support Manager for Compass Group, where I manage sixty employees and am responsible for an annual budget of $18M along with my experience on the Arlington City Council and Snohomish County Planning Commission, I believe I have the skills to serve the public well and be a vision leader.

In order to run a competitive race, I need your help today. My first goal is get sixty of my friends and family to donate $100 each so that we are able to have $6,000 seed money to build a website, develop and print doorbelling materials and manufacture yard signs so we can launch this campaign by the middle of January. I’m hoping that you will be one of my sixty friends and family members who will join us. Personal or corporate contributions are accepted and each individual is able to contribute up to $1,600 to this campaign. Early money is the foundation for a successful campaign and this campaign will cost roughly $150K to run.

Donations of any amount will be greatly appreciated and I encourage you to forward this message to anyone that you think will be interested in the campaign.

You can donate to the campaign two easy ways:
1. Mail a check with your address and include a note to states your employer and occupation to 8007 Keith Lane Arlington, WA 98223.

2. Use a debit or credit card by using this webpage.

When you donate please provide your email address and phone number as well so we can keep you up to date on how the campaign is going. You can also receive updates by "liking" our Facebook page at Ken Klein for Snohomish County Council.

Each of you has given so much to our community in so many ways and your hard earned contribution will be critical to our success.

Please contact me at any time with questions, comments or concerns at 425-299-6237 or by emailing me at ken@kleinforcouncil.com

Wishing you and your family a prosperous 2013!
Warm Regards,
Ken Klein
