Hi all,

below is what I have sent out, to four friends in the area...

if we all send out something like this, even just to a handful of people we know,

it will help get the word out...

of course, feel free to edit & modify it, however you would like,

so that it feels personal, from you.

thank you so much, for helping to spread the word!

Hello all,

Rosa here... extending an invitation, to a very special evening...

Acting on Hope and Courage:

an evening with Hattie Nestel, anti-nuclear activist and member of “Shut it Down” affinity group.

Hattie will be sharing with us her inspiring stories and experience as an activist. Her affinity group, Shut it Down, has engaged in civil resistance on twelve occasions since 2005 in continuing efforts to shut down the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant in Vernon. Members are all women, between the ages of 42 and 94, who repeatedly risk arrest in their efforts to protect the public from the dangers of nuclear power. Hattie is also very knowledgeable about the safety issues involved in nuclear energy production, as well as the possibilities of safe energy alternatives.

Thursday July 26, 2012, 7 pm

Great Barrington – Friends’ Meeting House on 280 State Road (Route 23)

Please join us for an inspiring evening, and help spread the word!
