    Hey guys, who is available to facilitate Saturday’s GA? It is going to be a special day in the park for us! Occupy Memorial Day Weekend will be taking place between 12-3 and we have several musical acts and a puppet show that will lead up to the GA. Its probably going to be a big GA. Thanks y’all!
