Hm... I'm thinking about it... I don't have a problem with changing the
location... But the turn out may be smaller b/c it's harder to get to
Westside Park than the Union. Also, I'm trying to figure out what the
route would cover. Going through downtown, by the bars etc. would be
awesome... However, I'm somewhat weary that we're automatically going to
appear to be "targeting" a certain part of the community, which we might
want to think about a little. One year, we started at Scott Park, and even
though it was a campus march, starting there was just a really bad idea,
it felt very strange, precisely b/c it seemed we were focusing on a
specific area of the community.

Other thoughts?

rally and march at Westside Park.  Everyone at the meeting thought this
would be the best way to get the community involved and it would also be a
change since the last 3 years it has taken place on campus. What do you
all think?
