Dear  fellow Green Party of California member

This is to announce  registration for the Greening California Strategic
Retreat, February 23-25  (Friday-Sunday) in Glen Ellen, Sonoma County:

The retreat is open to  all Green Party of California members, with a
particular focus on

-  members of GPCA statewide Standing Committees and Working Groups and
others  active on the state level
- members of GPCA County Councils and others  active on the county
level
- former (and future) GPCA candidates, campaign  managers and campaign
workers
- former and present Greens holding  elected office

Saturday's daytime focus will be on GPCA electoral  strategy for
2007-2008. Our state party’s Campaigns & Candidates  Working Group will
be coordinating the sessions.

Saturday evening  will feature former Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia
McKinney, introduced by  Aimee Allison, former Green candidate for
Oakland City  Council.

Brent McMillan, Green Party of the United States Political  Director,
will precede them with an overview of Green Party national  planning
for 2008.

On Sunday, the focus will be on various GPCA  internal party issues
that would benefit from free flowing discussions,  before they are
brought
forward to decision-making at our state business  meetings (General
Assemblies.)

These sessions will be coordinated by  GPCA members involved with each
issue at hand, with the overall day  coordinated by our state party’s
Strategy Committee.

Saturday will  also feature a gathering of Campus Greens from across
California.   Sunday will feature Green officeholders (present and
past) establishing a  California Green Officeholders Network.

The location for the Strategic  Retreat will be at Valley of the Moon
Camp in Glen Ellen, Sonoma County  http://www.uccr.org/vom.htm, with
directions to the camp here  http://www.uccr.org/driving_vom.htm

The reason for choosing such a  venue, is so that party members can
benefit from the informal contact,  networking and building
opportunities that staying in the same place  together can provide.

In order to make this possible, inexpensive  lodging on site ($18.50)
will be available - and is encouraged - for both  Friday and Saturday
evenings. Space is limited to 90 people sleeping on  site and 115
attending day-time sessions.  Parking is limited, so  car-pooling is
strongly encouraged.

All Retreat Attendees must  register in advance and pay a day fee of
$19/person/day for Saturday and  Sunday. There will be no charge for
Friday, day or night. The Saturday  evening program is open only to
attendees of the daytime  program.

Lodging is in dormitory style rooms of four to 16 people.  Attendees
must bring their own bring linens, pillows, sleeping  bags.

Meals are $7 breakfast, $9.25 lunch and $10.50 dinner (includes  tip
and 7.75% Sonoma County sales tax.) Saturday evening will  feature
complimentary local wine.

All registration must occur  on-line prior to the retreat.  There will
be no on-site registration,  and given the limited space, the retreat
is
likely to fill up  quickly.

Here is the registration  form:

We look forward  to seeing you in Sonoma.

Sincerely,

Warner Bloomberg, Campaigns  & Candidates Working Group
Mike Feinstein, Strategy  Committee
