[Grovenet] FG Library Program, Wed. 5/2, 7PM: OR Beach Bill

[Alana Graham]

Join the Friends of the Forest Grove Library at the
FOREST GROVE COMMUNITY AUDITORIUM, 1915 Main Street,
WED. 5/2/07, 7 PM to learn about:

Oregon's "Great Birthright" preserved:

THE STORY OF THE BEACH BILL!

Journalist Matt Love tells the story of the fight for
House Bill 1601 in the remarkable 1967 legislature
session.  The bill's passage marked the beginnning of
an era of progressive conservation measures that
provided a national, and even international, model and
helped define Oregon's political, cultural, and
recreational life.  Love weaves in press accounts,
primary resources, oral histories, and artifacts to
consider this semianl moment in our state.

This program made possible by a grant from the Oregon
Council for the Humanities.

Thanks, Alana

P.S. Don't forget to VOTE!
