Dean Tent at Tucson Blues Festival

Thanks to the generous contributions of many Dean supporters, our space at the Tucson Blues Festival is now paid for and reserved. The Blues Festival is a free event sponsored by the Tucson Blues Society in cooperation with Tucson City Parks. It takes place on Sunday, October 19, between the hours of 11 AM and 7 PM at the Outdoor Perfomance Center in Reid Park. At our Dean Tent, we will be distributing informational printouts and flyers about Gov. Dean's postions, giving away Dean stickers and bumper stickers, and signing up new Dean supporters and volunteers. While the space itself is paid for, we could still use donations toward supplies. I estimate we will need several hundred bumber stickers and several rolls of Dean stickers. I have also spoken to Michael Bryan about designing a special Dean button for the event with the slogan: "Howard Dean: the Cure for the Bush Blues." I know these buttons are expensive to make, but it would be nice to have some to give away. Anyone interested in contributing toward supplies for the Blues Festival tent can contact me or Barbara Tellman, who is now handling supplies among her many duties. As with the donations toward the space rental, any donation for supplies must be reported as an in kind donation to the national Dean campaign. I have a number of the in kind forms. Thanks.
