Media

Didn't actually find any . . . but didn't expect to. The media didn't cover our other good works/news/the rally, but they did cover people being arrested. And, it must have been the right thing to do . . . as we were able to help a friend out in the process.

A community summit to build the housing justice movement in Dane County. APRIL 27, 2013 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM

Only 11 meetings, but quite a few unusual items and items of interest.

Cancelled meetings not showing up here are Historic Preservation Plan Advisory Committee (tonight), Early Childhood Care and Education Committee (Wednesday), Council Meeting (Thursday).
