Urgent! Canvassers Needed!

A few weeks ago, the group that is so active in trying to defeat the ban on civil unions and marriage did some canvassing in Wards 8,18, and 9 in Marshfield. At our last meeting, we decided to finish the job in these wards so that we could move on to other areas later. We arranged 2 door-to-door sessions and we need plenty of people to go out and get the job done.

The first session will be from 6:00 - 8:30 p.m., Thursday, June 22, hosted by Yvonne DeJean who lives at 806 W. 5th St., Marshfield.

The second session will be from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. Saturday, June 24, hosted by Lois Greehling at 1703 Woodsview Drive, Marshfield (first condo on the right after driving west across the intersection of Lincoln and Arlington).

Ward maps, training, and refreshments will be provided at both sessions. If you can spare a few hours and help, please call Lois at (715)384.2659 or email: greehling@charter.net

This is IMPORTANT WORK THAT DEFINITELY WILL HAVE AN IMPACT! We all need to make a big push to get this amendment defeated in November.

One other thing: We need walkers for the float when we appear in the Pittsville parade on July 4. The parade begins at noon so anyone planning to walk needs to be on the land near the Lutheran Church in Pittsville before that. Several from the gay/lesbian community will be walking beside the float. We need lots of people to give them company and a high comfort level. A call to (715)384.2659 beforehand is recommended.
