COMING 2012-2013: CIVICS ON THE ROAD

Lowndes Citizens United for Action will hold a series of workshops throughout the county and bring in the experts. You won’t have to rely on what somebody told you; you can find out for yourself in a casual and relaxed atmosphere by people who know. Depending on funding, we want to bring you the following information:

· How roads get paved?

· How our county commission works and what rights and powers they have?

· How state and local laws are made and who gets to decide on the rules that we have to live by?

· What does the Ethics Commission do?

· What are your legal rights as citizens in a public meeting?

· What does the public have a right to know?

· What’s legal and not legal when it comes to voting?

· How does the court system work?

If you, your church or community group is interested in hosting one of these workshops and you are in Lowndes County, please send an e-mail with what you are interested in to: info@lcufa.com or call us at 334-613-7891.

Project Recycle! LCUFA has been researching recycling. Individual members are sorting their trash and hauling their recyclables into Montgomery. By making small changes in your daily habits you can have a positive impact on Lowndes County environment.

As we share our organizing skills with each community, we will encourage and inspire those communities to continue with four clean-ups per year on their own. People who pick up trash are less likely to litter.

To volunteer and help us keep Lowndes County clean, contact 334-613-7891 or email info@lcufa.com.
