keep us posted on what happens, this aint good!!

 

I have been corresponding with Dawn from CHAKO and they are planning a walk and meet the breed event for Sunday June 13th, which is the day before the hearing. They are also planning on handing out flyers to Auburn residents in hopes to try and spread the word. Here is the email that I received about the event. Feel free to repost on other boards and email to all your dog friends. We need all the support we can get!

FYI: I am posting a meetup in Auburn on Chako's event/meetup calendar for June 13th, Sunday - the day before the city council meeting. We can do a "Meet the Breed" walk and flyering campaign to spread the word about the next evening's city council meeting. Our flyers should be ready this morning. We may even get the Auburn Journal out to cover the story since it will be timely, and that will help people to realize their is a city council meeting Monday. Only pre-approved dogs will be allowed. We're encouraging folks with titled dogs to attend, or dogs that do work such as therapy work, service work, search and rescue, etc.

That is the calendar link for the Auburn walk - location to be determined. I thougth we should pow wow about where to start, how to organize the activity, etc. I think we should have both a walk portion of it (parade style) and a stationary "meet the breed" section. We can hand out tons of flyers along the way so that people know the city council meeting is happening the following day - and we can then even send people off at the end to go to different areas of Auburn (parks, etc.) to continue to hand out flyers. I can send out a press release to the Auburn Journal so that hopefully we get some coverage in Sunday or Monday's paper -- in time for folks to further find out about the city council meeting.

I only hope that we get more people at the city council meeting that oppose the ordinance.

 

do you need to be a resident in auburn to go oppose it.

 

Nope. I live in Roseville and I was at the last hearing. There were people from Placerville, Ukiah, Sacramento and all over at the last one. The more voices we have there to be heard, the better. Especially if we've got some cold hard facts to throw at them.
