*Green Sunday*

Upholding Our Rights to a Healthy Community -
What is the California Healthy Communities Network
and How Does its Work Affect Our Own Community?

Sunday, July 8th
5:00 - 6:30 pm

They have organized around a simple idea -- "that at strategic
moments our many organizations should join forces around a clearly
articulated agenda to promote and uphold the rights of a healthy
community".

Joe Feller, Phil Tucker, and John Nunes will present an overview of
the California Healthy Communities Network and will give an update on
the organization's struggles, victories and future plans in and
around Alameda County.  We will learn about a recent victory in
Livermore as will as an ongoing struggle in the city of Alameda
against a massive big box development on the island.  They will also
discuss Wal-Mart's proposed Merced distribution center which will be
critical in all future Wal-Mart site struggles.

Please come and bring your questions because as always,
our speakers will be interested in a dialogue.

Beverages and snacks will be provided.
