Between dodging alligators, throwing wrenches in Florida Power & Light's pompous power plant plans, and inspiring local eco-revolution, Everglades Earth First! is conspiring something big. Real big. I'll tell you about our plans if you promise you won't rat us out: We're planning a secret rendezvous! Okay, so it's not really secret. But it is a rendezvous. The annual Earth First! Organizer's Conference and Winter Rendezvous!

Feb 12th "Pickaxe Film Screening & Discussion". A Benefit for Earth First! Rendezvous in Delray

An arsonist burns 9000 acres of protected old-growth public forest in Oregon that can not be logged unless it burns. To stop the proposed "salvage" logging of this incredible ancient forest, citizens are moved to blockade a road and keep the government out. After facing down a bulldozer and the State Police, the fort now known as the gateway to the Cascadia Free State becomes the focus for a developing community dedicated to protecting ancient forests throughout the mountains of Oregon. The film shows confrontations with disgruntled loggers, mass arrests and a 75 day hunger strike. (94 Min.)

WHEN: Tuesday, February 12, 2008, 6-8pm
WHERE: Backbone Music, 61 SE 4th Ave, Downtown Delray
WHO: Everglades Earth First! and Improvised Action Collective (impAct)

Donations appreciated. Also proceeds go to the 2008 Everglades Earth First! Rendezvous in Palm Beach County.
