Times are tough, and the SF Green Party is feeling the pinch as we are struggling to pay rent on our office. So as we work on finding new ways to bring in some extra money, help us out with some temporary support by coming to Barry Hermanson's "Rent Party" and enjoy some of Barry's famous homebrewed beer. Barry has brewed up some IPA and an ESB (English Style Bitter - that actually tastes like a brown ale) just for this occasion, so come on by and party with the Greens, maybe hear a FEW inspirational words from local leaders, and if you can donate any amount large or small, we will come a little closer to making the ends meet and holding onto the valuable resource that the office provides. Bring grillable items or other snacks to share if you can! 2467 28th Ave. @ Taraval (off the L Muni line) Questions for Barry? 415-664-7754 barry@hermansons.com. http://www.sfgreenparty.org/events/events-itemfromhome.gem?idx=1891 ___________________________________________________________ -SAVE THE DATE: May 26th 5-9pm - Join us for a celebration of Supervisor Mirkarimi's appointment to the CA Coastal Commission, a valuable body charged with protecting our beautiful coast!
