This Sat @ Air & Water Show: BOAT ACTION protesting TAR SANDS in LAKE MICHIGAN!

No location was chosen

Hey Chicago Global Warming Meetup and Rainforest Action Network Chicago!

Please join us this Saturday (yes, in two days), to protest BP's dumping of tar sands oil into Lake Michigan!

We've got a flotilla of up to 3 boats with 25 foot banners alerting Air & Water show participants of the dangers of tar sands. We are seeking:

1-3 people to help on the boats. No experience necessary. Call Gloria at [masked] for more information. Meet at Jackson Park at 8am, back at 4pm, or, meet at Monroe St. Harbor around 11am (see info below).


5-15 people to hand out flyers on shore. Call Debra if you have questions or to let us know you're coming: [masked]. (Or just show up). We'll meet at 11:00am at the north end of Monroe St. Harbor (just south of the Chicago Yacht Club --- walk along the wall until it stops at the club).
