Local Green Party Meeting POSTPONED to WEDNESDAY,
January 22 6:30-8:30pm at Emmett Township Biggby's
==================================================
On Agenda:  Recapping 2019 Contacts with Activists,
Scheduling Local Activities for New Election Year


The South Central Michigan Greens local will hold its monthly meeting on
Wednesday evening, January 22 from 6:30 to 8:30pm at Biggby's Coffee,
1125 East Michigan Avenue, west off I-94's Exit 104 in Emmett Township
near Battle Creek.

The meeting was postponed from its original schedule of 1-3pm on
Saturday, January 18 due to the weather.

Co-founder John Anthony La Pietra of Marshall hopes to have updated
information from some of the area activist groups who shared their
causes with the local in 2019 -- Committee to Keep Rives Rural, Pledge
to Repeal, and Extinction Rebellion of Southwest Michigan.

La Pietra will report on the newly approved schedule of 2020 statewide
meetings of the Green Party of Michigan (GPMI), including the next
meeting March 7 in Grand Rapids and the state nominating convention June
20 at Lansing Community College-West.

The national Green Party of the United States will hold its Presidential
nominating convention at Wayne State University in Detroit July 9~12.

The local plans to host 2020 Labor History Walks in Marshall around both
US and international Labor Days (May 1 and September 7).
