Vegan bike ride/KFC Protest/Film Festival

Hello, again, you amazing animal lovers!!!! I hope you're having a lovely week, despite your several potential midterms. We have several announcements of upcoming events, to get excited about the potential fulfillment of your animal activist desires.
  • KFC Protest and Corresponding Poster Creation: We are making signs at our next meeting on Tuesday, March 3rd. We will be going over to the student union to use their slightly less than satisfying supplies, after meeting in the Redwood building. If anyone has access to personal resources (large markers, acrylic paint, paint brushes, etc.), please bring them to add to the potential for impressive posters.
  • BSA T-shirt: If you are coming to this week's meeting, please bring a design for a BSA T-shirt. We will be voting on the best design.
  • "Go Veg" Campain: Em, one of our lovely members, has recently decided to spear-head this campain, in which omnivores and vegetarians sign up to become either vegetarian or vegan, respetively, for a week. She has obtained 30 signatures while tabling for BSA.
  • Tabling: This lovely opportunity is starting up again this quarter. Feel free, if you are a part of the club, to come down to the Student Union to check out the BSA box of goodies (brown cardboard, with a green top, labled) from the back room with the approval of a worker. Then, go to the bookstore, use your ID card at the Customer Service center, and check out a table and chairs (the permit is on the underside of the box top). There is nothing more rewarding than spreading knowledge about the potential to create positive change within the animal industries.
  • Dharma Bike Ride: At the next meeting, we will also be planning this lovely event as a way to raise awareness of this amazing Santa Cruz resource, a very positive vegan restauraunt (http://dharmaland.com/restaurant/index.php?id=3)
