[Northampton-GP] Local Green Activities This Saturday 2/22/03

[Owen Broadhurst]

Jim:

I do wish that a Western Mass. Press Conference had been arranged much 
sooner. This is extremely short notice. I would like to help publicise
this in any way that I can, but the short notice may be prohibitive. I can 
certainly forward press releases to much of the local media tonight and on 
Friday- but have yet to be sent a detailed press release!

I don't understand. This press conference has been in the works for some
time, but it seems it is only being organized at the last minute.

Northampton Greens!

Two things happening in our area Saturday!

1) Sponsored by the MGRP Candidate Development Committee

There will be a Western Mass. activist discussion about the 2002
campaigns on Saturday, February 22nd from 10am-noon. It will be at the
Hitchcock Center at 525 South Pleasant St. in Amherst.

The discussion is specifically for members in Berkshire, Franklin,
Hampden, Hampshire and Worcester counties, but all are welcome.  Please
visit http://www.hitchcockcenter.org/map.htm for directions.

2) Sponsored by the MGRP

There will be a Western Mass. press conference announcing the name change to 
Green-Rainbow. Michael Aleo will be present for the event. I hope and 
believe that Marge Kennard has volunteered to identify a Northampton 
location around 5 p.m. on Saturday. If you can help organize the press 
conference, get in touch with Pat Keaney at pkeaney at netway.com or Marge 
Kennard 413-587-9735 m.l.kennard at worldnet.att.net. Press releases need to be 
sent out to the local media, local greens need to be contacted and asked to 
attend, etc. Also, to help announce the event:

If you can table downtown tonight (Thursday), Friday, or Saturday, please 
feel free to do so. The table and materials remain on my front porch at 50 
Hawley Street. The permit is for in front of Banknorth accross the street 
from Thornes from 3-7 p.m. daily. Please announce the press conference from 
the table!

Regards,

Jim

PS: Today is my birthday, I am 33. Also, I will be out of town, leaving 
Friday morning and returning Sunday evening. I hope all goes well. Thanks in 
advance for your time and energy!
