in need of water woke up and we have none so in need asap
thank you to all r supporters
It is super windy out here!!!! Could someone please bring some rope so we can tie down the tents.
another suggestion for addition to the needs list:
as we have trouble keeping the disposable dishes, i have found an inexpensive alternative.
the coleman 25 piece enamelware dining set is about $25 and will provide every occupier with a bowl, cup, plate, fork, knife, and spoon.

Are there only 4 occupiers? Because that’s how many people this set would equip. I’m sure there are more than 4, though.
Plus, do we really want to encourage Walmart shopping? Isn’t there a local alternative?
WE ARE OUT OF WATER SO WE NEED SOME ONE TO PICK UP JUGS AND FILL THEM OR BOTTLE WATER WILL WORK TOO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT
and we are out of paper towels
we also need to do lundry can anyone help
What size are the water jugs? Bottled water is an ok idea, but I know you have issues with people picking up trash…would you have the ability to be recycling those? If I lived closer I’d like to do more of the little errands, but I’m about 50 min from the park. I plan on bringing some of the requested needs soon though. Stay strong! Thanks so much for your efforts.
I everyone…after seeing the pile of laundry that needs done, it’s all I could think about practically on my way home. I am going to try to pull in a bunch of volunteers if I can and see if I can get each person to take a bag. I will pick them up in my truck if it works out and distribute/recollect and return. Also, Chris (my husband) and I were talking about all that bread…I am going to try to see if we can round up bins too…some should probably go to a shelteror possibly food bank, but anything like that should never be left in bags on the ground…a great target for rats. (and you don’t want to deal with that) I’ll let you know if my plan comes together.

I’ve got three ‘volunteers’ so far for the laundry…plus me (Jo from Occupy Brem too)..if I don’t head down tomorrow…I’ll pick it up Sunday. I’ll let you know how much I can take once I figure out how many can help with it.
