Those of us who live near the convention center should consider offering our apartments or lofts as such, even if we don't have to room to house many people. Water, meals or snacks, place to use the bathroom and get out of the rain, heat, whatever the weather, would be appreciated. Thanks!</p> <br class="clear" /> Sat, 29 Dec 2007 00:13:55 -0500 sakura senshi comment 26 at http://www.protestrnc2008.org http://www.protestrnc2008.org/node/21#comment-9 <p>Thank you for suggesting this! I would love for you to create a housing/hosting bank of some kind. I am from MN and would love to host people coming to protest (and I know a lot of other people who would do the same!). Another thing is that I would also like to see a place where people can link up with rides to MN (this will be a very important tool as the convention grows nearer). By finding groups that are committed on coming and linking them up with people who want to come, we can definitely have a great turnout.</p> <p>Thanks and I look forward to seeing these additions!</p> <br class="clear" /> Sat, 26 May 2007 12:16:31 -0400 Aguawater comment 9 at http://www.protestrnc2008.org http://www.protestrnc2008.org/node/21#comment-8 <p>Does anyone think it would be a good idea to create a forum or section of this site dedicated to posting contact information of those willing to host people from across the country, so that those wanting to come could get in touch with people willing to host? I would be willing to put in time and some $ to promote and spread this idea. Any feedback would be welcome, email me at nolanpeterson@gmail.com</p> <br class="clear" /> Mon, 23 Apr 2007 23:22:45 -0400 NPeterson comment 8 at http://www.protestrnc2008.org http://www.protestrnc2008.org/node/21 <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-start"><label>Start: </label>Apr 21 2007 - 4:00pm</div></div> <div class="event-nodeapi"><div class="event-tz"><label>Timezone: </label>Etc/GMT-5</div></div> <p>Next meeting:<br /> Saturday 4/21 @ 4pm<br /> At the Welfare Rights Committee office<br /> Sabathani Community Center<br /> 310 East 38th Street Minneapolis MN 55409</p> <br class="clear" /><p><a href="http://www.protestrnc2008.org/node/21">read more</a></p> http://www.protestrnc2008.org/node/21#comment Thu, 05 Apr 2007 18:32:29 -0400 admin 21 at http://www.protestrnc2008.org
