See You at the Capitol!

The Ripple Effect is about to drop!

12:30 pm at the Capitol Tomorrow! Tuesday, September 2nd. 
Through the multitude of organizations involved, there will be interactive activities throughout the day including issue and activist mini-workshops from 1pm until 5:30, many activities at the Sustainable Living Roadshow area, and of course - a substantial amount of music with Substance. 

Come early! We end at 7pm sharp.

We are rain or shine, and are going on regardless of the RNC’s schedule.

Check out the Parking and Transportation tab for info on how to get to Ripple Effect, what buses to take, park and rides, and parking info.

Though we are short on our budget, we are now contributing any funds we raise above our event costs to Gustov Hurricane Relief.  Look at Oxfam’s work on this for more info - Help Oxfam continue its work to strengthen the Gulf Coast.

We will be collecting donations at Ripple Effect from our merchandise booth on Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. to cover the costs of this free, nonprofit event.  Please come and contribute.  We will also have two different Ripple Effect t-shirts available and other merch.  All proceeds go to cover the cost of this event, and the goals behind it.

There will be a food and beverage vendor on the grounds (provided by the City of St. Paul), as well as a number of mercandise vendors.  There will be an ATM on site.  All vendors are on MLK Jr. Blvd.

Thank you everyone, thanks for your support.  And remember, this is a free event (no ticket necessary, though donations much appreciated).  Open to all (though the content is not censored).

- please come to the “Manifest Station” booth for event info, info on our goals as an organization in addition to our goals with Ripple Effect, and info on the orgs and how to get involved.  We are also still looking for volunteers.

Thanks again and take care,
Substance

    I heard that Matisyahu/Wookiefoot were going on about 1pm and Michael Franti & Spearhead about 4pm. If that’s the case, then does Rage Against The Machine or Bruce Springsteen go on at 5pm, because there ain’t no way anybody else is going to follow Franti, my friends!

    Yes please post set times…can we at least know when Franti is playing?

    I think we’re all in agreement here in wanting to know when Franti is playing. ;o)

    (Great comment, RugbyGuy!)
