Greetings to all,
The attachments above invite you to attend a May 7 meeting to begin
creating a county-wide grassroots network of groups that were actively
involved in helping to elect President Obama.
At this meeting we will identify priorities for action and begin
developing a county-wide infrastructure for action.
Although we have a very thorough list, we are sure that there are many
other activists in our community who would be interested in attending.
Please feel free to share this invitation with them.
See you on May 7 at the Alicia Ashman Library.
Questions?? get in touch.

have consumed us for so long no longer apply."
