The general theme of the conference will be to recognize and learn from the Minneapolis citizens who worked so hard to preserve our Democratic values in the face of government sponsored violence There will be plenty of time for getting to know one another and share stories, including an easy hike along the East River Park trail to Bridal Veil falls, and an optional paddle boat cruise on the Mississippi.
