WHAT WE DISCUSSED
How did Hyde Park go?
As you know, the IPSA had control over a secondary stage at the Hyde Park
fair in Camel’s back park. We decided to try and get a booth next year, as
lecturing on a stage takes away from the festive activities.
The newsletter-
is looking good. We go to press on the 29th. Great job, Dawn!
Some Boise Cascade action-
Mateo from Rainforest Action Network talked about creating a more
controversial approach to Boise Cascade Corporation. If you’re getting all
giggly just thinking about it, call him at 343-5872. He’ll also be speaking at
Martin’s Monday night (see upcoming events).
Pat Vickey came to talk about Margaret Henbest’s political campaign.
Henbest is a nurse practitioner. For more info on helping out, e-mail Pat at
