Midtown!!

We need a yard, driveway, or business front that would allow us to set up a small area during the upcoming Cooper-Young Fest.

The plan is to have water bottles, some literature, some campaign information, and a voter registrar available to help make sure our friends and neighbors are registered to vote.

Do you have a space we can use? Or know someone that does? Please let us know asap!
