AGENDA
1. PJH Meeting Place (Karen)
Finding a "permanent" meeting place continues as both Carl and Nancy
reported having difficulty hearing at Bridge. Karen reported that
after talking to both Bix and Joe Power Drutis that Jean's house will
be too busy in the coming month and a half with the Plowshares Five
sentencing date set for March 28. Out-of-town visitors are expected
and there will be much traffic at Jean's House. Possibilities remain
post the sentencing date. Other possibilities discussed: Proctor
library, other library branches.
2. City Sister Film Fest (Sallie)
This coming Thursday the film "O Jerusalem" will be at the Blue Mouse
from sister city Kiryat-Motzkin, Israel. Discussion of plans to
leaflet re: Israel/Palestinian issues. Discussion included a brief
synopsis of the movie (the time period of the movie is '47 and '48 and
is centered on the friendship of a young Palestinian and a young
Jew); approaches the leaflet might take, timing of leafleting, last
year's experience with leafleting.
Respectully submitted,
Karen
