[alca-nunca]

Please send this on to anyone you know who is coming down to quito this october!

Greetings from the welcome committee, a group which has been formed for the 
mobilizations in Quito this October.  We are a group of both ecuadorians and 
foreigners that has come together to help find and pass on information for 
those foreigners who have plans to travel to Quito this October to participate 
in the events during the days of the ministerial summit.  We have created two 
lists (one in enlgish and one in spanish) as well as an email address, 
bienvenidoquito1031 at yahoo.com by which you can write us any questions you may 
have.  If you know of more people who have plans to come down and need more 
information they can subscribe to the english listserve by writing to 
quitomobilization2002-subscribe at yahoogroups.com, and to the spanish listserve 
at quito_mobilizacion2002-subscribe at yahoogroups.com.  In adition to sending 
information to these listserves we will be posting information at the website 
www.ecuador.inymedia.org

We are currently looking for information in the following areas:
	-legal information (visas etc..)
	-entering the country 
	-housing and food
	-maps and transportation
	-a scedule of events and updates on the plans for the various events

For those who can’t afford to stay in a hostel we will be able to provide 
somesort of free communal housing.  We also hope to be able to provide food for 
those who need it. 


If you have any questions please write to bienvenidoquito1031 at yahoo.com 

we’re really excited that so many people are coming down! 

In solidarity, 
Comité de Bienvenida
