We are arranging for bus transportation to bring folks
to the camp.
One bus will depart from Port Townsend and head south,
picking up
campers on the way to Goldendale. The other bus will
begin in Eugene
and head north to meet us there.

The camp is being hosted by the Teen Peace Project
in Port Townsend,
WA, assisted by students from Seattle and Eugene,
Oregon. The camps
are
a joint project of the Ruckus Society, Code Pink, War
Resisters League
and Teen Peace. This will be the first of several
camps offered across
the country. For more information, visit-
www.notyoursoldier.org

Students have been involved in planning the camp-
selecting the
location, workshops and activities. The focus of this
event is to
empower young people to return to high school and
college campuses
ready
to oppose military recruitment and work to
demilitarize their schools.

We need financial support, and any contributions will
be used to offer
student scholarships. We also need help to spread the
word- we are
nearing our first day of camp!

For questions about the northwest camp, contact Liz at
360-379-9094.

Peace,

Contact Liz for more information as she has more than is on notyoursoldier website. Counter recruitment, demilitarizing schools, peace stuff for several days. My teen is involved with this and they are a great, very involved bunch of kids. It will be well worth it.
