Subject: [DaytoniansAgainstWarNow] Demo

DAWN! is scheduling its regular demonstration this Saturday, Feb 20. It
will start at 1pm at Salem and Siebenthaler. Please come and show your
solidarity withe the Peace Movement. Despite all we do the War Party acts as
if war is a normal occupation for our country. Even Bernie, does not take a
stand against our aggression overseas .

Let us change the narrative and focus on peace and non-intervention!!

Coco's February Sunday Brunches
to Benefit Stivers

by Alexis Larsen, contributing writer for Dayton.com <http://dayton.com>


For eight of the last 10 years, the Coco's Bistro in Dayton has put on
"Savor your Sunday" brunches benefiting Stivers School for the Arts in
February. The special brunch dates are a way to celebrate art, food,
education, community and the opportunity to give back.

The popular brunches sell-out quickly bringing in 150-200 people per
brunch, for a total of about 800 meals served. Getting a reservation in
early is key. The cost is $30 per person with $15 donated back to Stivers.
Meals include a fruit and cinnamon pita chip starter, a choice of one dish
on the menu and live entertainment from a different Stivers group of
musicians. Visual art students also get involved with a large painting on
display based on the Fernand Leger painting, "Les Trois Musiciens."

It's a special opportunity to dine for a good cause - Coco's does offer
brunch on special occasions like Mother's Day and Easter, but it's the only
time during the year to be able to enjoy brunch at Coco's on any kind of a
schedule.

WANT TO GO?
WHAT: Coco's Bistro Savor your Sunday brunches to benefit Stivers School
for the Arts
WHERE: 250 Warren St., Dayton
WHEN: Reservations are available from 10:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. for the four
Sundays in February
COST: $30 per person with $15 donated back to Stivers
SCHEDULE OF ENTERTAINMENT: The Stivers Jazz Group (Feb. 21) and The Stivers
Concert Pianists (Feb. 28)

Subject: Peace Covenant Agreement

Please feel free to share with your groups. This covenant is for adults and
children alike.








From: Colette Harrison, PhD., Unity In The Valley Seminars, One Human
Family Workshops, Successful Self-Direction Programs
Subject: Funding Needed!!!

Unity in the Valley is looking to bring a series of "workshop"
opportunities to Dayton, approximately quarterly, over the next two years. I
would love to have a broad Multi-faith/Multi-organizational Alliance help
fund this endeavor which seeks to highlight the dimensions of institutional
racism and implicit biases that perpetuate negative interactions in our
community. The total amount needed to present the entire program offerings
will be approximately $18,000 - $20,000 over the remainder of 2016 and all
of 2017. I will be happy to provide the overview documents describing each
component as mentioned, but omitted, in the previous posting of this
opportunity - just send me an email request at
unityindiversity_2015_Dayton@yahoo.com
<mailto:unityindiversity_2015_Dayton@yahoo.com>

As it has been proven that many things that are free are often not valued
or regarded as worthwhile, I suggest asking participants to pay between $10
and $15 (or possibly "free-will offerings") to basically cover the costs of
the food that is to be served during each event. Some events will be a few
hours to a half day, while others are weekend or 4 Sunday afternoons or 5
weekday evenings as best fit the needs of the community where it is to be
held.

If, once you have reviewed the attachments, you believe in the value of
these community-building and race unity workshops, please send the
attachments out to your business owner, organizational, as well as members
of the faith community, with your recommendation that they contribute to
this endeavor as I hope you will yourselves.

I also look forward to your input and would be happy to meet in person and
I can also be reached by phone at 937-274-7009.
