“Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children’s children. Do not let selfish men, or greedy interests, skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Please join in with Winona County CASM (Citizens Against Silica Mining) to Honor the Earth

Friends!
Please join in with Winona County CASM (Citizens Against Silica Mining) to Honor the Earth by participating in an Earth Day Rally to be held at Levee Park in Winona, MN on Saturday April 26 from 3-4:30.  See attachment for details.
Some of you may already be well versed on the subject matter presented at this rally.  However, we ask that every one of you make an earnest effort to attend and show solidarity on this important front.  The rally was deliberately scheduled to piggy back on the city’s Earth Day event in an effort to make it visible to the public and convenient to attend.  Because this is a family-oriented day for the city and because we want to look very approachable, we ask that you not bring signs or wear clothes with particularly graphic messages (even though some of the consequences of this industry are quite dire).  CASM will have a table among the Earth Day vendors at the north end of Main St. from 10-3 where stickers and buttons will be available.  Also, be sure to stop by the table to pick up a flyer for the Earth Day Rally which will list all of the speakers and offer resources for further information.  Hope to see many warm faces there!
Sincerely,
Winona County CASM
