Get Up Off Your Seat, and Into the Street


Please join us on Sunday, December 18th, at 2:30 pm for the next meeting of our group @ Abingdon Library

We’ll be meeting on Sunday, Dec. 18th at 2:30 p.m. at the Washington County Public Library in Abingdon (same location as prior meeting).  The meeting agenda will be very simple:  Hear from everyone who wishes to speak about their hopes and ideas about how to make our group an important part of the movement for real change, sparked by Occupy Wall Street.  If feasible, we’ll follow our open brainstorming discussion with a prioritizing about which ideas and actions we want to focus on, and, very importantly, who is willing to work to get us there.  The success of this group hinges on the involvement of all of us.  It's time to make the personal investment in our community and country that is needed! 

And please bring a friend to grow this movement.  Let’s build on the energy of the 75 folks who gathered at the library a few weeks back, and build a movement for real change!

Note:  The original group that set up the 1st meeting felt that it was beneficial to have a meeting sooner than later (from the enthusiam we felt from all of you at the 1st meeting), so it was decided to take advantage of the availability of the library on Dec. 18th.  We know that many will be busy, but are hoping that this is enough of a priority to make the commitment to be there.  If you cannot, feel free to communicate that, with any thoughts you would like to share (e-mail back to me with comments - cassavk(at)gmail(dot)com).  Again, the success of this group is dependent on the contributions of all of us!  What are the visions we see for our future that we can help create...what are we willing & able to do to work together to achieve that?
