DEMO - CALIFORNIA RODEO AT SALINAS - SATURDAY, JULY 17

July 16, 2004

Friday, July 16

HELP!

As of 3:15pm today we have a total of only FIVE people committed to take

part in tomorrow's anti-rodeo demo in Salinas, 11:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.

That's pretty pathetic, people.

So where are all the would-be activists in this movement, pray? An

animal-free diet is fine, of course, but that ain't enough. WE NEED

BODIES! Yours? If not, then please call some of your pro-animal

friends and urge their participation in this demo. Surely some of you

know people who live in the Salinas/Monterey area. We have signs,

banners and flyers to hand out. Now all we need is YOU. Calls to the

media urging therm to cover the demo would be helpful, too.

I've sent out a press release to Bay Area and Salinas/Monterey

newspapers, TV and radio stations on Wednesday, which I'll repeat today

and tomorrow. AFA ran an anti-rodeo ad in last Wednesday's SALINAS

CALIFORNIAN, which will run again this Saturday (tomorrow). We

apparently have some support at the paper, for they ran the Wednesday ad

right next to a large pro-rodeo ad.

Please don't let the animals down. If hardly anybody shows up for the

demo, the message to the media is that nobody much cares. Do you?

If so, please call Eric Mills at 510/652-5603; Judy Jones at

408/286-5204; or Alfredo Kuba at 650/965-8705.

For the animals,

Eric Mills, coordinator
