July Meeting Notes

Superman Is An Immigrant - The HPA/Imagine Better and Define American recently launched Superman Is An Immigrant (http://www.supermanisanimmigrant.com).  In this campaign, we are telling our American story.  While we think of Superman as an all-American hero, he is actually an immigrant, coming to Earth from another planet.  Like Superman, many of us can trace our roots to other places.  Please check out the website and consider submitting your own American story.  (We wrote our stories at the meeting, but this is definitely something you can participate in on your own if you missed it!)

Summer Crafty Projects - We will be continuing our crafty projects through the summer.  We are writing letters/coloring for Operation Write Home (http://www.operationwritehome.org).  We are also knitting/crocheting for the Snuggles Project (http://www.snugglesproject.org) and Warm Up America (www.warmupamerica.org). 

Next Meeting - Our next meeting will be Saturday August 3rd.
