MoveOn.org is helping to organize vigils across the county this evening (August 17) in solidarity with Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a young man killed in Iraq who is camped out in Crawford, Texas, and doing so much to focus the nation's attention on the tragedy of the war. You can learn more about Cindy's efforts at MeetWithCindy.org and then visit MoveOn.org to sign up for a vigil. Here's the latest on local vigils: 17 Aug 07:30 Vigil in Solidarity of Cindy Sheehan Community United Church of Christ Raleigh NC 27606 Hosted by Allyson Caison: CodePink Description CodePink and NC Peace Action are co-sponsoring a Vigil in Solidarity of Cindy Sheehan and in memory of all vicitims of the Iragi war 17 Aug 07:30 Cary Candlelight Vigil for Peace South Academy Street near the Cary Public Library Cary NC 27511 Hosted by D. Bravo Description A 30-minute, candlelight vigil in support of peace, our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan and Cindy Sheehan, mother of soldier, Casey Sheehan, who died in Iraq 04/04/04. Here is what Cindy said about the vigils: "I invite mothers everywhere to stand up with me so that no more of our sons and daughters se their lives for a war based on lies and deception. Join me in demanding the truth—and an end to the war—by organizing vigils across the country, before one more mother's child is lost." 17 Aug 07:30 Boylan Street Bridge Vigil Boylan Street Bridge Raleigh NC 27603 Hosted by Concerned Citizen Description Quiet vigil on the sidewalks of Boylan Street bridge. This is the same location as the peace vigil that was held before the war started. Bring a candle in some kind of holder to protect your hands from hot wax. | |||||||||||||||||

Wake Progressive Democrats' August meeting this Saturday, August 20th, at the NCATL building located at 1312 Annapolis. I am happy to announce we are going to meet at 6:00pmand have a potluck dinner!
So many of you have requested trying something different (aka anything other than Saturday morning) and so the Executive Committee figured we would try an evening meeting...and some good home cooking!
Please RSVP and let me know what you intend to bring, so I can fill any holes in our dinner lineup. Joining us (I hope) will be newly elected PDNC president, Mac Whatley. Mac has some other meetings in town and hopes to break away and join us for part of the evening.
I look forward to seeing all of you Saturday night,
PJ Puryear
President, Wake County Progressive Democrats
