We need to get at least 200 signatures, if you are interested in having your name attached to the ad,
Email: YOUR FULL NAME, the TOWN THAT YOU LIVE IN
by THURSDAY AUGUST 18th, 7:00 PM.
Central Vermont Peace and Justice will front the money for the ad ourselves – with the good faith
that if you have emailed us your name to be included, you will then send us a check for as
much as you would like to contribute. Please contribute at least $20 per name.
All money raised will be used to purchase the advertisement and we will send the extra to the Crawford
Peace House to support Cindy Sheehan in hercontinued efforts.
2. From David Budbill:
Send postcards daily to Cindy Sheehan with notes of support. The goal is to have thousands of postcards arrive daily. Spread the word. Tell a friend, tell 10 friends and send a postcard today.
If you send a postcard every day from now until September 1st, it'll cost you $3.91.
Send post cards to:
Cindy Sheehan
Crawford Peace House
9142 East 5th Street

It is particularly important that you include all 9 digits of the zip code as the Crawford Post Office is not delivering mail that does not include all 9 digits of the zip code.
