Dear friends,

Every activist needs to party occassionally!  Everyone is welcome! 

And we have a lot to celebrate! The A World Beyond Capitalism Conference (AWBC) 2007 and the 2007 SURGE, The Third Annual, International, Social Uprising, Resistance and Grassroots Encouragement (S.U.R.G.E.) Film Festival and Film Festival Network (SURGE 2007) meetings in November went very well. We gave away over 200 info booklets explaining each of the events to people. If you would like to print out the booklet (and distribute it to people worldwide) you can see it here: http://www.RadicalUpdates.org

Be sure to subscribe to the email newsletter found on that website for updates.

On Tueday, Volunteers spoke with Media Island about working with them! Thanks Rick and every one at Media Island! Capital Theatre (which has Olympia's only balcony) said they'd rent us their space and all the works for an affordable amount! Thanks Mark for looking into that and thanks for offering your house for campers to sleep during the film festival! Much like the AWBC 2006 we decided the SURGE 2007 would remain free of charge! Sweet! The website for SURGE 2007 is up and ready! http://www.WeSurge.org Thanks to April who thought up the awesome name for the website! Maya came and took a bunch of booklets to her activist meeting on Wednesday. Thanks Maya! And thanks to everyone else who is helping with SURGE 2007 and the AWBC 2007!

Also, April is still looking into seeing if we can get free of charge space elsewhere so we can have a much larger Film festival this year. Mark, Stephanie and other AWBC and SURGE volunteers saw a movie ('Before the Music Dies') later that night in Lecture Hall 5 at Evergreen College and they used a DVD and it was a great spot so maybe we can get that Lecture Hall for SURGE 2007, who knows. :)

Anyway, to celebrate the progress made with AWBC 2007 and SURGE 2007 we would like to invite everyone to a party!

For the phone number, exact address and directions to the AWBC and SURGE party please click the below temporary link:

Party starts around 6pm or 7pm on Saturday, 11/18/2006. Sorry for such short notice but it the heavy rain in Olympia has made national headlines and we weren't sure the party would happen. Feel free to bring snacks but it is not at all required. Homemade food and a whole lot of other good food will be there!

Every activist needs to party occassionally and we hope you'll join us! If you can't make it for whatever reason, we hope to have some photos up on the AWBC scrapbook page sooner or later and we hope to see you at the AWBC 2007 in August 2007 or at SURGE 2007 in May 2007!

Solidarity for a better world!

All are welcome in the AWBC and SURGE....Bienvenidos.

Love for the people,
