Letters From the Frontline ( Bumbershoot)
This weekend i spend three days in the Seattle center running the booth for the Student Freedom Project. 30 hour of water pong later, i have an amazing behind the around the back shot and 252 new members for the Student Freedom Project mailing list. Hosting a table at bumbershoot truly was a new experience. Thought our many ....many games.... of water pong i learned a great deal about the students and young adults of the greater Seattle area. We found out that like most young adults they knew nothing about the current political climate or the world around them and didn't care to know. But even through the apathy, we made many new connections hand helped forge a place for ourselves in the Seattle community. The parents and community members we in counted supported our organization and further motivated us in our mission to help young people get their voices heard in the political climate. We meet with people from all back grounds, ethnically and politically, and found that one issue transcended all economic reform, and a waste full government. Over the three days we as an organization grew and refined the Student Freedom Project. Thus taking us one step closer to accomplishing out goal ; to enable college students to take an active role in shaping the future they will graduate into.
