*Dear ACLU Friends,*

*We are part of a large local grassroots coalition that has a great weekend
planned for July 17- 20. This is a chance to learn about all the great work
being done in our community on a range of issues, to connect with local
activists, and to find out how you can contribute to this ongoing project
of democratic government. Especially now, we need everybody in! *
