Re: Interesting Way to Pitch In at your Local 24h Party/Protest/Rally #Occupy Vancouver Wish-List - Support List

[titan_dog]

i would hold off on bring anything more then what we need to get through the weekend ie. bring everything that you will need on your back. if it looks like that there will be long term occupiers, then we could look at stock a camp for the long haul.

Hey friends,

This is a materials list that the organizers at OCCUPY VANCOUVER have compiled for their stay. I am really loving the organizational quality of this action.

This is truly "social media" (theory) in the social medium (practice).

Cheers,

Shane I.

It was great to gather tonight and I look forward to what we can do over the next few years

THEY HAVE ALSO SET UP A PAYPAL ACCOUNT FOR MONETARY DONATIONS BUT THAT MIGHT BE A WAYS OFF FOR US.

I realize that the park may be to small for all of this event activity, however it's good to know a wish list incase we decide to take this elsewhere in the near near future.
