I'm sending out a big 'thank you' to those of you who have been working hard to get yard signs out. We can already see an impact on the streets that we've worked. We received another batch of them today and are expecting more...

Remember to ask friends and neighbors to sign our petition, put a car decal on, and put a sign in their yard.

We are planning to send out two groups of people this weekend (Jan 30-31) to get more signs out in people's yards. We will meet at the corner of Tchoupitoulas and Calhoun on Saturday at 9:30 and again on Sunday at 1:00. Please let me know if you are able to go out at these times with us. Of course, anyone can go out anytime, to do petitions, decals or signs but we thought it would be good to organize as many people at the same time if possible.

We are also looking for people to represent us outside of the polls on election day (next Saturday, Feb 6th) (within the guidelines of course.) We are planning to talk to people about our cause, get petitions signed, give out decals, and give out signs.

We've had several inquiries about large yard signs. We are so limited on money, we have not ordered large signs but if anyone wants one, we'll have some printed for a $40 donation for each sign requested. That's pretty much how much it'll cost us to have them printed.

Remember to let your political candidates know that this issue is important to you by displaying your car decals, signs, and by writing to or calling them directly. If you need contact information, let me know.

Thank you again for all of your support and help as we fight this proposal. The help and support that we've received has been very touching. Keep up the good work!

A million thanks, and Go Saints!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
