Don't Miss Out!

It's that time again — feminist activists from around the country will gather in Nashville, Tenn., for the 2005 National NOW Conference the weekend of July 1-3. Home of the Grand Old Opry and the Country Music Hall of Fame, Nashville is a rollicking good place for NOW to convene.

Fun aside, important business is on the conference agenda. Participants will concentrate on strategy and skills building to counter the Bush administration and his right-wing cronies, including a focus on electoral organizing at the NOW PAC Political Institute. The NOW PAC will also hold a silent auction to benefit election work, with lots of valuable feminist paraphernalia up for grabs.

The Friday afternoon session will be devoted to the recommendations from NOW Foundation's Women of Color and Allies (WOCA) Summit held in April and NOW's commitment to ending racism. On Saturday, as we do every four years, delegates will elect a team of four national NOW officers.

All day Friday and Saturday will be devoted to workshops, skill-building sessions, issue hearings, dynamic speakers, and elections of NOW officers for the next four year. On Sunday we will debate and decide on resolutions that will shape NOW's actions and policy for the coming year. Don't miss it!

Make Your Reservation Now at the Conference Hotel!

The cutoff date for the special rate is June 12th.
