Summer and Center streets. Next are May 2nd, 2009 and May 1st, 2010. At High Noon (sharp!) we proceed down W. Summer thru the Mall to the corner of W. Summer and Court.  Then west down Court Street on the north side-walk.   We do not have permission ($!) to use the street, so we must stick to the sidewalks and obey pedestrian rules.   We will check on being able to have bicylces and pace vehicles on the street beside us. Do not block traffic or impede other citizens attempting to use the walkway. We will march, politely and peacefully, down to Liberty Street and turn right.   We'll go north up Liberty to Center and turn right.  Going east down Center we'll come to W. Summer (the Mall), and return to our original rally point.   See directions in WORD or PDF.    PLEASE Print Off our flyers in WORD or PDF, Spread About and Post them everywhere two or more of the faith are gathered. Those unable to go the distance will be holding our rally point and waiting for the Marchers there.   Here are our flyers in WORD or PDF that we'll be handing out at the march itself.   Here's a 11x17 poster idea in WORD.

Banners, posters, handbills, flyers for 2004 and 2005 MMM.  Adapt for your needs!  Click: http://gallery.marihemp.com/mmm2004flyers Or go to this other big MMM photo gallery.  Click: http://gallery.encod.org/mmm and then click on "mmm2004" and then "Banners Posters Handbills" Many of the MMM 2004 banners, posters, flyers, and handbills were converted from PDF files to the gif and jpg images found here.  The freeware Adobe Acrobat Reader and the freeware IrfanView were used.   (Download Adobe)   IrfanView is a free image editor that is useful for adapting these flyers and banners for your needs.  Download the full-size gif images since they use far fewer kilobytes compared to the 640x480 and 800x600 jpg versions of the same image.  JPG image files are mainly for photos and images with lots of color gradation.  GIF image files are much better for flyers and banners. IrfanView can easily edit, reduce, or enlarge gif and jpg images.
