Tule Lake Pilgrimage

Greetings. I would just like to share some important information with
the Berkeley JACL members: registration deadline for Tule Lake
Pilgrimage. This year's Pilgrimage will take place July 3-6, 2008,
and registration closes on May 31, 2008. As fewer and fewer former
internees are around to tell their stories, our urgency increases to
bring participants to this special 4-day event that is structured
around hearing their stories -- and using those stories to inform our
activism today. Many Berkeley chapter members have attended in the
past, and we would be very grateful if you could share this
information with your networks and help make sure no one misses out.
Scholarships are available so money should not be an object for
anyone. General information plus brochures and registration forms are
available for download at www.tulelake.org. We look forward to
seeing you this summer at an amazing journey into the past, present,
and future!!!

Sincerely,

Nina Kahori Fallenbaum
Tule Lake Committee
