Folks,

I just got confirmation from Paige Coleman regarding this coming
weekend's workshop, so here's the official announcement and call for

Boise Voice, a publication of the Boise Neighborhood Association:

This is a reminder that the planned workshop is happening today. I
don't know how many people will show up, either on the looking-for-help
side or on the looking-to-help side. A surplus of the looking-to-help
folks can't hurt, so if you can, please come help. Thanks!
