[GPSCC-chat] Tomorrow Tu 10/25, 11:30-1:30, Rally at SF Obama fundraiser to Stop Ke ystone XL (was Fw: Details for tomorrow's rally - please read)

[Valerie D. Face]

Hi everyone,

CREDO / CREDO Mobile / Working Assets is having a rally in San Francisco tomorrow from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM at an Obama fundraiser to tell him to stop the Keystone XL pipeline.  The email below is what they sent out to people who signed up.  Others are welcome.

If you're going, please make sure you read the details about public transit and street closures.  I plan to simply walk up 4th St from the Caltrain station.  (The rally is at 3rd & Howard Sts.)

I'm very sorry for the late notice.  Last week and this week have been / will be busier than usual for me, so I've fallen behind on email.  But I don't think I've seen anything about this on our list yet.

Best regards,
Valerie

Hi -

Thanks to all of you who have RSVP’d, tomorrow's rally is already generating a lot of attention. We think it will be the biggest protest of an Obama fundraiser yet, and we're really excited to send a strong message to President Obama to reject the Keystone XL Pipeline.  

Please read the information below to help make tomorrow a success:

TIME: 11:30 - 1:30 pm 
We'll start the rally as donors are arriving. The President is expected to touch down at SFO just before 1 pm, so we'll keep the rally going until 1:30 to make sure he sees our message.

We could use 5-10 volunteers to help make signs and set up starting at 11 am. Please email events at credomobile.com if you can help volunteer starting at 11 am. 

WHERE: The corner of 3rd St. and Howard St. (Along Howard, west of 3rd)
We'll have a table set up with signs, buttons, chant sheets and other materials to pick up when you arrive. 

GETTING THERE:
Public transit is the best way to get to the rally. If taking BART/MUNI, Powell St. Station will be the most accessible to the rally due to street closures.

*Due to street closures, you may not be able to access 3rd St, but should be able to walk along 4th St. to Howard, and walk up Howard to 3rd.*

If you are driving, please allow significant time to account for traffic delays and street closures. It is best to avoid driving in Downtown San Francisco if possible. (If coming from the North Bay, park and take the ferry to Embarcadero; if coming from the East Bay, take BART.)

AT THE RALLY:
There are multiple groups planning to be present, but ours will be the largest by far - just look for the "Stop Keystone XL" signs and banners. 

We've been in touch with the police to make sure this is a safe and peaceful protest. If anything changes between now and tomorrow because of the President's security, we'll let you know as soon as we know. 

Can't wait to see you tomorrow - this is going to be a really powerful event. Thank so much for helping to seize this opportunity to deliver a strong message to the President. 

Elijah
