Subject: Snohomish County Walk for Peace


I am a long time member of Snohomish County Peace-Action.  I'd like to
share this with my fellow Democrats and encourage them to consider
taking part in this walk to get a better idea of who we can be building
relationships with in our own neighborhoods and districts.

  Snohomish County Walk for Peace
  Peace Action invites you to join us on a four day walk for peace. From
Thursday July 5th through Sunday July 8th we’ll walk through most of
Snohomish County to raise awareness and help people find ways to help
stop American militarism. 
  Walk for a mile or a day to help build local peace groups. Most
Americans oppose the war, but don’t know what they can do to stop it.
We’ll help them learn how effective they can be by taking simple steps
like writing their representatives. We’ll help them connect with
neighbors to form local peace groups, building a network of informed,
coordinated citizens groups.  
  Peace begins at home. It grows when we step out of our homes to walk,
talk and work together for peace, justice, and sustainability.
  Our route is a mix of busy arterials, quiet suburbs and shady parks. 
   
  Let us know if you can commit to a particular stretch: that will help
us coordinate things.
   
  Tell friends about the walk too!  If you know people in any of the
communities we'll be walking through, we're interested. We're contacting
activists, churches and community groups to recruit folks to walk
through their own towns.
