Mole's Progressive Democrat

The Progressive Democrat Newsletter grew out of the frustration of the 2004 election. Originally intended for New York City progressives, its readership is now national. For anyone who wants to be alerted by email whenever this newsletter is updated (usually weekly), please send your email address and let me know what state you live in (so I can keep track of my readership).

    ORGANIC SOUNDS SACRAMENTO, March 5, 2009

    WHERE: Sierra 2 Center, Sacramento
    WHEN: March 5, 2008 - 6pm
    WHAT: Since 1991, Pesticide Watch Education Fund (PWEF) has worked side-by-side with communities to clean up and prevent pesticide pollution and pesticide exposure. We believe everyone has a right to breathe clean air, drink clean water, and live in a healthy and safe community.

    Two years ago, we moved our office from San Francisco to Sacramento, to play a larger role in state politics, and to fill a need in the Sacramento Valley to reduce and ultimately eliminate the use of toxic pesticides, while providing safer alternatives and increasing food security. On March 5th, we will be celebrating our efforts over the past two years, with local music, food and speakers, and fundraising money to continue into the next.

    ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA RIVERS FESTIVAL

    Friends of the River this year brings back the California Rivers Festival, the popular annual event that has something for everyone: kayakers, whitewater boaters, fly fishermen, families interested in learning about California rivers, and anyone who wants to get involved in river conservation.

    Held each year as the snow starts to melt and the rivers start to rise, the festival brings river enthusiasts together to have fun, as well as to learn more about the rivers they love and about Friends of the River¹s work to protect rivers throughout the state.

    * An opportunity to learn about whitewater rafting and kayaking by talking with vendors who offer outings and lessons.
    * Workshops on river sports techniques and how to save rivers.
    * Opportunities to get involved in protecting California¹s wild rivers.
