Re: Loco meet in may at Columbus Public Library Main

 

Could somebody please check out one or two churches in the Columbus
area?  Usually they've got more space to hold more people.  Conneaut
Church of Christ here in my northeastern corner of the state can seat
about 100 in their auditorium and has been used for non-church events
before.

With Governor Kasich's intentions on closing the budget gap really not
clear, we need to have a backup site just in case Governor Kasich
follows the lead of California Governor Jerry Brown and zeroes out
state-level funding for libraries.  Our state's public libraries might
well be under quite a bit of stress by the time the statewide rally
comes around.  Having at least an Alpha Site will help ensure we don't
get caught if public libraries lose their main source of funding in our
state...an off-the-top cut of state income tax revenues.
