Hello,

This is Katie Parrish with Oceana writing on my Gmail account. I just wanted to drop you all a line and let you know that next week we will be hosting meet ups in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton next week (Tuesday-Thursday) to brainstorm and plan a commemoration event for the 1 year anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon oil disaster on April 20th. I'd love to get as many folks as possible involved and helping us brainstorm on how we can make the event great!

There will be events in Washington D.C., Maine, Boston, North Carolina, South Carolina, South Florida and the Florida Keys. Our plan is to have a street-theatre style mock oil spill to send the message, "What if it happened here?" We will be having a large tarp to show what our coastlines would look like, people dressed up in hazardous material suits, tacky-tourists covered in oil and whatever other ideas we come up with at the meeting!

Below are details about our meet up locations in Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton. If you need any help with directions or can't make the event but still want to get involved with the planning process please feel free to send me an e-mail a kpar...@oceana.org or a call at (305) 741-9416.

Fort Lauderdale:
Where: Brew Urban Cafe, 209 SW 2nd Ave in Downtown Fort Lauderdale, near the intersection of 2nd Street. The coffee shop is located closer to the river on the corner.

Hi Katie,
If you would also send these notices to me at kitty...@yahoo.com, I can be sure to get them on the Green League calendar! 
I've been so busy with my new job that I don't always have time to check the Green League email account.... sorry!
