I did not know him, but I admire what he did. It is a shame he did not live to see the court pass the injunction stopping enforcement of the law (a day after he passed). I think it's a great idea to honor him.

A story about Chris:

I updated this thread with many pertinent links and contacts (above).
Next I suggest:
1. Someone seek out more of the patches. (call his executors, best friends, the arts center, ...) for possible giveaways or inclusion in the Derailleur zine.
2. Decide to bring the mass either or both to the Arts Center (Wilson), or to Morse Avenue (aka honorary Chris Drew Way), or both.
3. If going to the arts center, call and tell them.  If Morse, pick a specific destination.
4. Map it!  (The unpublished map linked above may not be usable, seems to be a multi-mass with two start points?)

 

Being crushingly busy with WNBR-C, I was hoping someone else would serve the above.  Anyone know anyone else who should be in?  Should we loop in the CCM list?

OK, Me and Jera and Steven and willow've done everything we can.  Map is planned and printed.  American Indian Center and friends of Chris Drew contacts have been contacted (though we have no idea if there'll be anything awaiting the mass).

Route flyer is posted on http://massup.us

Also I've transcribed it to Google Maps (almost 17 miles).

C U Friday!
