VFP Milwaukee Chapter 102 would like to invite all the members of Veterans for Peace and Iraq Veterans Against the War in the State of Wisconsin to a statewide gathering at the Highground in Neillsville, WI on Saturday, September 22nd.
 
Gathering together would allow all of us to become familiar with the work we are doing around the state, as well as the possibility of coordinating future actions together. Initial ideas for an agenda and time lines are below, beginning with a meet and greet lunch at 12pm and ending with a dinner around 5pm.
 
Agenda items might include
1) 12pm social/meet ‘n greet
2) Get to know what we are doing around the state.
3) Create a way to coordinate actions
4) Collective action—“Armistice Day”, “Drones in WI"
5) Create a possible statewide structure for communication.
 
We welcome all of your ideas for agenda items. We want all members attending to have input on shaping our discussions together.
 
Information about the Highground can be found at http://www.thehighground.org/
 
The Highground will be providing space free of charge but will accept any donations we can provide.
 
Please RSVP or send questions to: http://www.facebook.com/events/121959454611210/
