[Szoke, Ronald Duane]

I'll "do" the middle shift & whatever else is needed, including transporting signs in the afternoon.

Subject: [Peace-discuss] Saturday: AWARE @ farmer's market (final outdoor one) and demonstration

AWARE will be at one more outdoor Farmer's Market: this Saturday, Nov 2nd.   (We'll be in the indoor market for a couple weeks after - on Nov. 9th and 16th - and more in December.)

And, wind or no, our monthly demonstration against the wars is also this Saturday, 2-4PM, at the corner of Main and Neil in downtown Champaign.

Who is game to work the market tomorrow morning, early middle or late?   (If so, bring a coat *and gloves*.)

It's expected to be chilly and *windy*, up to 25 mph, so I think we should leave most lightweight things packed.

I can be there to set up, and Karen's car can handle transport.   If enough people can cover the day, *including packing up at noon into Karen's car*, then I'm hoping to leave around 8:30am (to attend an environmental event in Clinton about the Clinton landfill vs. the Mahomet aquifer).   Otherwise I'll stick around through the morning.


For those interested, here's the environmental event, happening in Clinton, IL:

A public meeting will be held on Saturday, November 2 at the Clinton public library (310 N. Quincy St., Clinton) at 10 am. The meeting will review current issues & legal challenges addressing risks to the Mahomet Aquifer from the proposed PCB chemical-waste landfill at Clinton. Presenters include area legislators & regional organizations. The event will conclude at 2:00 pm. A light lunch will be available.

This event is being organized by Mahomet Aquifer Protection Alliance (MAPA), a recently formed citizens group pursuing various issues related to the risk of contamination to the aquifer. MAPA hopes to bring new energy to this effort by adding new members to the group and expanding their efforts to advocate for the health of the aquifer. If you are interested in joining them, please plan on attending the November 2 meeting.
