Anti-coal light brigade

If you are concerned about the proposed coal trains coming through our city and region, you are invited to help create overpass light brigade-style signs to let more people know about the Seattle public hearing on Dec. 13.  The Backbone Campaign is generously providing expertise as well as some materials.  We’ll be creating signs over two evenings, so please join us* on one or both nights.

Monday, Nov. 26 from 5:30-7:30  (THIS coming Monday!) 

Southwest Branch Library (9010  35th Ave SW; 98126)

Bus #21 (from Vashon take the RapidRide C Line/ Rt. 673 from the Fauntleroy ferry terminal)

Tuesday, Dec. 4 from 6-8pm
Fremont Abbey  (4272 Fremont; 98103- 43rd street entrance, downstairs, street parking.)
Bus # 5

We’ll make 2 signs:
“COAL = POISON”

“COAL HEARING DEC. 13”       (We’ll project them over I-5 before the hearings, sign-up to help hold signs!)

Here’s a description on the process of this type of sign-making:

These signs are effective — and expensive. If you want to make a financial contribution to this project, please make a donation to the Backbone Campaign to help cover the costs of supplies. Note the category “Light/Projector/ Tactical tools”.  You can also send checks to:
