Richard Fries and crew are putting together a neat forum in Boston on December 17th.

Anyone interested attending?

Hi all,

I got back late last night from MassBike's boot camp. I enjoyed it.

Of course I'm new to advocacy and getting to learn the different organizations, but it'd be neat for NYBC to put on a similar event.

I recorded the sessions. I can post the mp3s soon if anyone is interested.

Happy holidays everyone.

[Harvey Botzman]

Jesse,

Great!

Please post the MP3s so that everyone on the email list (Doug might have that list.) can listen to the MP3s.

Thanks.
Harvey

Hi all,

Below is a link to an mp3 of each of the sessions. Sessions 1, 3 and 5 were the most helpful to me.

Richard Fries started the morning with the following YouTube clip as a metaphor for advocacy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ed_Kxyqgp1c

Thanks Jesse! Would you write an article about boot camp for the RCA website? Anything from a few sentences to a few paragraphs would be great. And I'll post the mp3s as well if you think we should.

MassBike is gonna do another Advocacy Boot Camp. This time on Feb 10, 2018 in Somerville, MA. I really enjoyed this event last December. I learned a lot. I'm considering attending again.

Depending on logistics, I might go too.
