“View and Chew”
23 Oct 13:08
We qualified for the Working Films and Clif Bar offer “View and Chew”. We received the toxic comedy "Everything’s Cool" Activist DVD, which we can preview at the sign-making meeting and plan a full screening, and 2 boxes of Clif bars (maple nut Clif and fruit/nut Mojo if you must know) for refreshments. Plus our great local water - not everyone can live upstream, but we do!
