: Dear BNCPJ,
:
: Please start spreading the word.  We (BNCPJ) are now officially approved
: to hold our fifth annual march through downtown Bloomington and speak
: out rally on the west steps of the Old Courthouse building on March 22,
: 2008 (details below).
:
: Let us get to work now alerting our fellow citizens and inviting them to
: join us.  One of the best ways to do this is for several people to write
: pro-active, inviting letters to the editor of the Pantagraph.  Let us
: also work on informing the media (print, radio, TV) about the event.
:
: These will be important items for us to work on at our next monthly
: BNCPJ meeting:  Sunday, March 2, 2008, 4pm at the Unitarian Church, 1613
: E. Emerson St. in Bloomington.
:
: The fact that this is the fifth anniversary gives the event special
: weight and importance.  United for Peace and Justice has adopted the
: slogan "Five Years Too Many."  Let's work together to make our event
: well attended and successful.
:
: Thanks, everyone.
