As some of you have noticed, I haven’t posted for awhile, but please know that we’re not abandoning our cause. In fact, we’ve been working on some projects “behind the scenes”, and I’d like to take this opportunity to share with you a little about plans for 2009:
- New Flyers- We’ve posted new flyers to our website. Please check them out here. I would encourage you to print them out, post them on community message boards, pass them around your workplace, or share them with others at your local tavern. You can help us spread the word and make others aware of the economic harm and liberties that have been taken from all of us.
- New Membership Level- There’s now a new membership level that we’ve introduced. Due to the tough economic times, we now how a $10 annual membership fee. We would appreciate you helping us by scraping together $10 for our cause. You can sign up by clicking here and donating. You can pay by check, money order, or credit card, and all of your money will be used to promote BtBMN and to fund our upcoming projects. You may think that $10 won’t go too far, but our goal is to get 1,000 members this year alone, and that’s a substantial amount of money that will really get us some serious attention.
- New Promotional Items- We’re planning on ordering new promotional items. We will have BtBMN T-Shirts available on our website soon, and we’re also looking at ordering static window clings with our logo and website.
- A Lawsuit- It’s a distinct possibility we will be filing a lawsuit this year against several organizations. I can’t let too much out at this time, but a clue about the lawsuit can be found here. Again, lawsuits cost money, and we hope you will consider becoming a member to help support us in this effort.
- Theater Night Revival- The first anniversary of Minnesota Theater Nights is rapidly approaching. We are looking into celebrating the anniversary, but are still working on the logistics of such an event. Again, the more support we receive, the better the likelihood of such an event coming to fruition.
Finally, I want to thank all of you that supported us in 2008. I am hoping that in 2009 we will discover an additional group of supporters that will make us even stronger and show our legislators that we are serious and are not interested in backing down from their attack on our liberties.
