We still need volunteers. Please ask everyone you know to sign up at
http://volunteerforchange.org/e/117?refcode=o52



We still need money. We knew from the start we'd need at least $50,000. We've only raised $45,000. We need at least $5,000 more, and we need it fast! Every dime we've raised or spent is listed publicly on the website, modeling transparent governance in case anyone in Washington is watching:

Tabling only costs $25 per day. Why not set up a table with your information:

Here are free rooms and rides:

You can help spread the word about Camp Democracy with the tools found on this page, including a local event guide, a sample press release, Email announcements, flyers, posters, web banners, audio of a public service announcement, a student activism kit, and a short blurb for newsletters:

1. Who's planning on going?

I'm going to spin into a little minitrip and excuse to visit DC-area friends (and crash at their place :evilgrin:). Any other DUers planning on being there?

2. let's all go!

I am most likely leaving kansas for dc end of this week- through MO KY WV my route probably.

Just curious, I have not been online much for the last 2 months, traveling, and wonder how much CD has been talked up here?

This is such a good thing, with many good people involved, and I personally would like it to keep GROWING after the time it is scheduled for. Until IMPEACHMENT begins. you might say i'm a dreamer, but i'm not the only one

3. A few threads have begun to surface in the last couple of weeks...

but not nearly enough. The organizers have been popping up on Mike Malloy, Peter Werbe, Thom Hartmann and some of the other talk shows, but I'd love to hear a little more buzz.

4. a few of us have been posting facets of it on SC

I posted links, and the calendar, and other stuff.

I am willing to keep getting the word out, if you will, or even if you won't!

thanks, and impeach
