You are invited to join us for our 2009 Activist Media Training in Des
Moines IA. This training is designed to bring individuals together from

League in Washington DC, who will share her broad experiences in dealing
with various forms of media on a number of different issues. 

There will also be a briefing for updates on the current legislative
issues affecting wild Alaska, including the Arctic National Wildlife
Refuge, the Tongass National Forest, and Teshekpuk Lake among others in
light of the new administration.

             9:15 - 2:00 pm (Lunch will be provided)

learning more about the issues facing Alaska or seeking to improve their
grassroots skills. All levels of activists are welcome!
