Kate

Don't you live up that way? Why don't you organize something for the event next year? BAV would be happy to support you if you want to lead the effort.

You could always show up this year and shadow the event with some "Why Vegan?" flyers in hand.

Take care

Dear Aram, Lisa, Chris and other friends,

I just realized that MPJC (Marin Peace and Justice Coalition) will be tabling at this event and because I have started an Animal Rights Committee with MPJC all I have to do is make sure they have AR/Veg literature and that they put it out on the table! Yeah! So, those who are going to this event, please stop by the MPJC table and thank them for integrating the issues and having AR/Veg literature!!

For the animals,
