Hi everyone, at the meeting last Saturday we came to consensus to host another planning meeting this Saturday, same time, same place.

If you'd like to get involved in this event, these meetings are the perfect opportunity. I will have flyers and such to give away to anyone that wants them. Afterwards, I plan to go down to Saturday Market.

If you have any questions, thoughts, concerns, or ideas, please come to the planning meeting!

My agenda item for this meeting: - solidifying details about the rally itself and put together an outline - talk about the press conference on Monday - discuss promoting activities between now and 7/4.

If you have anything to contribute to the agenda, please show up at the meeting or post your idea below.

Other good news: I recently heard back from the ACLU of Oregon, it’s likely that we will have their President speak at our rally! I’m still trying to track down other community speakers, if you can think of anyone to contact: feel empowered to contact them directly! If they are interested, pass me a note, or have them turn up at the rally.

How you can help otherwise: our biggest goal right now is getting the word out. Post on facebook, comment on local news stories, talk to your friends, or print off and pass around flyers. Also, if you have any thoughts or ideas about this event, please let us know! We’re open to all suggestions and we seem very happy to empower individuals who want to do their own thing.
