Below is a synopsis of last night’s fabulous meeting in which we started to envision a women’s retreat, likely to take place next fall! Consider this a hearty invitation to join us at our circle next month March 24 at 7:30 PM at the Yoga Center, 449 Forest Avenue, Portland, to broaden the visioning and planning, for the retreat is “potluck style,” in other words for those who participate in creating it.

We now have folks in Skowhegan, Farmington, Portland, Freeport, Waldo County, Bangor and Bath that are going to be dropping War $$ Home pizza style door hangers on our campaign action weekend of April 10-11.

In order to get them printed and distributed in time we have to place the order by March 12.

So I am gently reminding you that if you wish to place an order with us please do so ASAP.

The door hangers are 10 cents each, thus if you want 200 of them you pay $20.

Make checks out to Global Network and send to address just below.  read more »
