Bring Them Home Now Tour Thursday

As promised, here is the information on Cindy's appearance in Houston. It turns out that she will only be here Thursday night. Check back for more information on helping with housing and food for the tour. There may be other events with the rest of the folks on the tour Friday, so stay tuned:

Cindy Sheehan and the Bring Them Home Now Tour bus arrive in Houston on Thursday, Sep. 1. See http://bringthemhomenowtour.org/ (although everything there is not completely up to date).

We have arranged a special public welcome for them on Thursday evening from 6:30 to 8:30 P.M. at:

Resurrection Metropolitan Community Church
http://www.resurrectionmcc.org/
2025 West 11th Street, just west of T.C. Jester
Houston TX 77008-6320

This is inside the 610 Loop, north of I-10 and west of Shepherd. (This is the same place where Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee held her town hall meeting last Thursday evening.)
This is two large spaces. The church sanctuary seats 880, and the gym/church hall has chairs for close to the same number of people. In addition, there is a large parking lot and space in the adjacent residential neighborhood for overflow parking. If the weather is bad and the crowd is slow coming in, we can direct everyone to the sanctuary. When it starts filling up, we can direct the others to the gym/church hall. I hope we fill up both.

Cindy Sheehan will need to leave around 7:30 pm to catch a plane to her next city. That's why we're starting early (6:30). However, the others in the bus tour (veterans, MFSO and GSFP members) will also be part of the program and can continue after she leaves.
