Northern Wisconsin NORML reported a great turnout for the July meeting and the crowd spurred on chapter leaders to conduct a signature drive with a reward awaiting for the winner at the next meeting. Recent trips to Appleton and Oshkosh to provide some activist training and provide field directors with the tools to be effective has been paying off. Individual chapter leaders in Appleton and Oshkosh are asking for your help. They plan to discuss plans to make initiatives more local and need your help in directing efforts at the county and city level. Non members of NORML are welcome and encouraged to attend meetings. Supporters can printing their own signature forms that support ending federal marijuana prohibition (HR 2306) and turn them in at the meeting on Wednesday, August 17th.
As stated, local field directors with NORML are working on gathering support for initiatives in the City of Oshkosh and City of Appleton, as well as the general Outagamie and Winnebago County area.

During July 19th Pot Book Giveaway, Northern Wisconsin NORML also threw down a whole bunch of other marijuana support gear during our meeting at the Appleton Public Library. Congratulations to our winners of The Pot Book: A Complete Guide to Cannabis, Satan’s Smoke (now known as The Case Of U.S. v. Yerbas) and Treating Yourself Magazines. The response was outstanding and we collected tons signatures in support of HR 1831 (Industrial Hemp), HR 1983 (Medical Marijuana Patients Rights) and HR 2306 (Ending Federal Marijuana Prohibition).
We also threw done something else, a challenge that Appleton area activists accepted. Among the support gear available, we have a wide variety of T-Shirts that activists appreciate…..and someone is going to win one! The activist which brings back the most completed and signed signature forms for HR 2306 – The Ending Federal Marijuana Prohibition Act back to our next meeting on August 17th at the Harmony Cafe in downtown Appleton takes their pick of out of our “Green Line” of T-shirts. And as attendees of the last NORML meeting in Appleton know, we are generous to those who show and plan to include another give away of a variety of our merchandise stash. Wait…there is more…we will be giving away another copy of The Pot Book to someone just for showing up….so we hope to see you there!
