Meeting Reminder 11/3

Hi everyone!

This post is just a reminder that we will still be having a meeting this Monday evening at 7 pm, despite the fact that Dr. Lindsey Doe's Mondates have, unfortunately, ended for the semester (There are several more Humpdates, however- visit Lindsey's website for more information and schedules.) The meeting will be in one of the conference rooms on the third floor of the UC- I, of course, don't know the room number and don't have it anywhere near me. We'll try to make ourselves easy to find, though.

The meeting should be fairly short- but there will be fun arts and crafts! What kind of arts and crafts, you wonder? Condom Art Pins!!! We'll be making some, and also sorting out details for some tabling we're going to do with the pins in the near future.

Oh- and just so you all know- our computer has been broken since Wednesday and so we have no access to our email inbox. Fortunately, we can send emails, we just can't receive them. Hopefully everything will be resolved sometime this week, but if you need to talk to us about something it's probably best to give us a call or drop by the Women's Center.

Take Back the Night

Hello Everyone~

Take Back the Night is tomorrow night!! The evening's events will go as follows:

A healing circle for survivors will be led by SARC at 5pm in the University Center room 326. Please come to this if you are a survivor or supporter and would like to share your story or listen to others.
Then at 6pm we will all gather at the grizzly statue for a silent, candle-lit march downtown.
At 7pm speakers will begin at Dauphine's Cafe and musicians will follow.

Please join us once again this year and stand up for safer streets in our beautiful community.

Meeting Update 10/6

Hey Cool Cats,
As our meeting Monday made apparent, the Women's Center is getting down and active, so we need a lot of help. Here's what we talked about:

I. Take Back the Night: Details are coming together! SARC is leading our indoor healing circle at 5 PM on Friday, October 24. The healing circle will be in UC 326. At 6 we begin our march by the grizzly lecture in the oval. The march will be silent and candle-lit. We've approved the route, through the street down University and then North on the left-hand sidewalk of Higgins, around the Xs and to Dauphine's cafe on Broadway. There we will have speakers and entertainment from 7 to 10. Our speakers are David Moore, Kate from SARC, the PP teen girls group, and possibly somebody from WVE. Hopefully we can have Shelby play for us as well as some other female entertainers.

II. Love Your Body Day
It looks like we'll need to put our display on a roll-out wall in the UC. It will be out on Wednesday October 15th.
Later, (early November) a larger display will be going up in the market or one of the UC conference rooms.
It looks like it will be costing us around 300 without donations and discounts.
So...we need help (and ideas):

III. Self-Defense Classes
October 18th is the first ALL-DAY introductory-level course. from approx. 10 to 4. available to female, griz-card-holding students only.

Thanks, Kindra
