NW Not Your Soldier Camp
Announcing the Northwest Regional "Not Your Soldier"
camp
- a student activist training camp for youth 13-22
years old.

August 29- Sept. 1, 2005 near Goldendale, WA
sliding scale, $25-$250 SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE
price includes meals, housing, transportation,
activities and workshops

to register, go to www.notyoursoldier.org

Local contact for this camp is:
Committee for Countering Military Recruitment
countermilitary@yahoo.com
343-8548 ext. 1

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,
Liz Rivera Goldstein

4. They lie and tell them anything
if it's not written down, it doesn't matter. The young needs to have other young people telling them this, not us old parents who don't know anything.

5. There is still room for more kids. Scholarships available.
Don't not sign up because of lack of money as they are very willing to help out.
