It should be a good one! The August 20th Zoning hearing will be held at Loyola University, Crown Center Auditorium, 1001 W. Loyola Avenue--at 6:30pm. Transportation help: Loyola University is across the street from the "Loyola" stop on CTA's Redline and numerous buses stop at this location as well. For those of you driving and are unfamiliar with Rogers Park--parking is very tight up here. Allow time to cruise! If Metra--the UP-North line running from the Loop to Kenosha-- works for you--we have a stop in Rogers Park at Lunt and Ravenswood. From this location you would have to walk east to the L stop at Morse/Lunt and then ride south to Loyola. > See you all there, > Susan Murray > RPCAN > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The Tent City is an urgent attempt to house the growing numbers of homeless families coming to the KWRU with nowhere else to go, and to fight for the human right to safe affordable housing for these families and all of Philadelphia's homeless. The Tent City has been set up next to a large mural honoring the late Pennsylvania Senator Roxanne Jones, who fought side by side with poor and homeless families in the KWRU, joining us in countless tent cities and other protests in the struggle to end poverty and homelessness in Pennsylvania. Please come by tent City to find out more. Please help us in this urgent struggle - we need moral support and we need donations of ice, water, food, tents, sleeping bags and cash to keep going. Please see our webpage at www.kwru.org for updates and photographs of Tent City. > ========================================================== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
