Convention Credentials
You must be a paid up GPNJ member in order to vote at the
annual convention. Annual dues are
$25 for regular dues, $10 for students and low income.
Renewals may be paid
at the door. Active Greens may apply to their county coordinator
for a waiver of dues.
Directions
The Rutgers Labor Education Center is located at the corner of Ryders Lane and Clifton
Avenue in New Brunswick. Take the NJ Turnpike to exit 9; then Route 18 North (less than a
mile) to Route 1 South. Proceed slowly as you get onto Route 1 South, because you want to
make an IMMEDIATE right turn into the Sears parking lot. At the very back-left corner of
the Sears parking lot there is an outlet road that leads directly toward the Labor
Education Center parking lot; make a quick left after exiting the Sears parking
lot.

The annual Convention of the Green Party of New Jersey is the one time each year Greens
from all over the state get together. Elections for officers for the upcoming year
are held at the convention, as are votes for amendments to the bylaws which establish the
procedures for how we do things. That's the serious business!
