Events

From the Carrboro Bicycle Coalition's spring 2012 newsletter:

Join us at the newly-expanded Looking Glass Café at 601 W. Main St. on Friday, April 13, from 5:30 to 9:30. Ride your bike if you can! We’ll have food trucks and activities (including the bike blender for you to make your own smoothie), and we’ll once again be raffling off many great prizes from local merchants! We’ll have T-shirts to sell, and there’ll be music, too. The funds we raise will go toward several projects—see our "year in review" article to see what we've been up to so far, and what we hope to accomplish. We may have a cruiser ride after the fundraiser ends, so come prepared. Hope to see you there!

Race to the Ballot, a statewide campaign to raise awareness of the effects of Amendment One, the current hate campaign against gay and lesbian North Carolinians, will arrive in Chapel Hill on February 16.

Over a five-week period, from January 27 to March 2, 2012, Protect NC Families Communications Director Jen Jones, trailed by a team of campaign organizers, social media street teams, and documentarians, will run 322 miles across the state of North Carolina, from the mountains of Asheville, N.C., to the coastal city of Wilmington, N.C., to raise awareness about the harms of the Amendment.

You and your friends can participate in the race and invest in its success.

Race to the Ballot will support the voter education and registration efforts of the Coalition to Protect NC Families.
