Our next meeting: 9/6? 9/10? Let's decide.

(Note: excuse the double message. VLR) Who would like to take the lead in organizing a meeting for Sept. 6th or another date?

I am involved in 3 large projects -- saving the national congressional elections from GOP theft (again!), preparing for a 9/11 anniversary event on 9/10 at Cinemagic theatre (1 to 4pm -- hope you can make it) and helping to get Tobias Read elected in HD 27. If you wish to attend the Sept. 10th event as our Tigard DFA event, let's do it. Otherwise, one of you will need to prepare, advertise, and conduct the Sept 6th meeting if you want to have one. I sincerely hope to keep this great group going, but it is all of you who will need to step forward and take the reins to guide it, build it, and make things happen. I did all I could to help start it in Jan 2005 and shepard it through for 1.5 years. Now we need to really join together and decide how to continue and share the load.

Many of you have been assigned in a leadership role at www.dfalink.com/tigard.... If you want to assign other people, go in and do it. Spread the work around. Use the tools, be creative, have fun. But please don't let it all go and says it's somehow Ginny that "gave up". I am not a quitter. All of you are the co-leaders, so it is up to you to lead.

Thanks and I hope to hear from someone with a plan to have a meeting or with a plan to change dates or times or locations, join with another group, go to the peace vigil instead, go to the 911 meetings at Laughing Horse, or whatever. It's not up to me. Let's decide together.

Thanks!

Ginny Ross
One of the Tigard DFA leaders
