[Dems-events] tomorrow's meeting

[pgrafstr at gac.edu]

Hey Guys and Gals,

Tomorrow's meeting (9pm 49er Room by the SAO Desk under the Caf) will focus on
what we have heard from the departments about money and what we want put on the
table tents that will go up this week and the next.

If you're worried about how to contact department chairs or haven't sent out an
email yet, don't worry... I just sent out mine.  If you're looking for a form
letter I've included what I sent out to Pr. Leitch and Pastor Larson.  It's a
little wordy though and you might want to pair it down a bit.

See you guys,

Hello,

This is Peter Grafstrom with the GAC Democrats and Project MalWart.  You may
have read the article in the Weekly about our group.  Next month we plan to
picket the Mankato Super WalMart on the first Saturday after spring Break.

We are currently contacting departments at Gustavus that would like to help us
out financially with protest materials and possibly renting a van to transport
our demonstrators.  I realize that many departments have already allocated most
of their funds by this time in the year.  Any amount will help, especially if we
can pool resources from multiple departments.

The money will be set up in a 9line account with the GAC DEMS.  The money will
be kept rack of to assure that it will be used for this project.

We hope to be joined by local activist in the area such as the Senate District
23 Democrats, local Union Workers, and other local activists (certainly any
professors are welcome to join us).

Thank you for your time,
Peter Grafstrom
