[GPSCC-chat] Locals [was agenda items for april meeting;]

Our GPSCC Bylaws provide for locals.  Initially (1992)  the GPSCC had 
locals, but after the initial excitement of the initial petition  drive, 
participation shrunk so that locals could not be sustained.  When I  joined the 
GPSCC in Fall 1994, meetings were hardly attended (3-4 people; you  know who you 
were).  If find the suggestion to organize locals lacking a  realistic 
assessment of where the GPSCC is organizationally.  Beyond that  (as agenda 
preparer for the April meeting) I find the lack of a clear and  detailed 
proposal an indication of our collective amateurism and a symptom of  the 
limitations of our all-volunteer mode of operation.  Additionally, I  find the idea 
of "cultivating" from other organizations something that those  groups 
probablyu would not want doen to them and that we wouild not want done to  us.

Following  Drew's suggestions, let's make these two  items
agenda items for April

1) institute Locals

2)   the following can be used as  a part of forming  locals
or it can be locations where the Greens  make themselves noticeable
and they also seem  to fit Sandy's notion of going where the need is
again, Drew  is the source:

tenant associations, block clubs,  food-buying clubs, 
baby-sitting  pools
