Are you currently residing in the Twin Cities? If so, the RNC Welcoming Committee needs your help for the August 31-September 3 pReNC, a weekend of workshops, skills shares and strategy sessions to prepare for the 2008 Republican National Convention taking place in our backyard. We need:
- Housing for folks coming in to town. Do you have extra beds, a couch, floor or yard space? All kinds of accommodations are needed and appreciated; post whatever you have to offer on our Housing Board.
- Bikes. The pReNC kicks off with a Critical Mass ride, and we want visitors to be a part of it, and to be able to get around town the rest of the weekend! If you have bikes/bike parts to lend or donate, e-mail giveusyrbike (a) riseup.net, or just drop them off at the Jack Pine Community Center.
- Volunteers throughout the weekend, for things like childcare, cooking, meal clean-up, and general logistical support.
- Supplies, big and small, including:
- phone cards
- laptops
- FULL propane tanks
- climbing gear
- first aid kits/med supplies
- communications equipment (phones, radios, etc.)
- printing supplies (sticker paper, screens, ink)
- cars
- funds
If you have questions or contributions, email: pReNC (a) riseup.net
