[Iswg3906.organizers] Fwd: Mi'kmaq Warriors Speaking Tour - Southern Ontario

[Peter Hopperton]

This sounds like an amazing opportunity. I'd love it if we could participate in bringing these folks to town.

Tony, I agree. I'm free this Sunday. Want to meet at 1pm to talk more?

Also, I've got word from HARRRP that we could book the lounge at their st peter's space (main and sherman) for our workshop if it were on Feb 8, which is now right around the corner. I believe that the room would also be free on other saturdays. We are welcome to go out there and look at the space to see if it meets our needs.

Thanks!

Hi folks:
This request from Danielle just came in yesterday. It is below. Sounds pretty neat. 
I'm wondering how everyone is doing. I feel sort of a drift right now from folks. Does anyone feel like meeting up this Sunday to get caught up and talk about Danielle's request? Does anyone feel like heading to Six Nations Sunday for some visiting?  

Take care,
Tony

hi friends



i'm writing to let you know that the Mi'kmaq Warriors Speaking Tour will

be coming through Southern Ontario & i was interested in hosting these

fantastic peoples for an evening in Hamilton.  The ways in which ISWG

might be able to help are with finding a space for the event, possibly

finding a billeting place for the speakers and maybe costs for

food/incidentals.



as soon as i find out the definite dates (we're thinking around feb 20ish)

i will begin asking other organizations/community groups for help along

the same lines.



also if you know of other peoples who may be interested in helping to

organize with me personally, please feel free to pass along this info.
