Heidi, chair of CCDP, has created and shared free digital downloads for post cards.

Check ’em out! There are two versions.

That page has instructions. Like, the digital download is intended to fit well using Avery Product #8387. Easy to find at office supply stores and “big box” stores.

https://www.avery.com/products/cards/8387

As of 30 minutes before posting this, Top Office in Sheridan has a few hundred of the blanks for this size card, although they are a different, discontinued, product. And can order #8387.

Cheers!

I don’t know the origin of this poster. I do believe it is old. 100 years? 144 years? If I had more time for “What We Will” maybe I would do some research.

For now, here’s a link to a post on Medium written in 2017 on some of the history around the 8-hour workday.

Democratic Parties exist, primarily, to help Democratic candidates get elected to public office. Of course we are just groups of individuals. Every individual has a rich and varied background. We are not all the same, but we are all worthy of care and we deserve to be treated equally, given equal opportunities. Et cetera.

You may have noticed a lot of protests and rallies happening around the country and even our state. While we celebrate the freedom of speech, we aren’t the folks behind these events. Here’s a list of some of the groups you might see organizing events like those.
