Historic Madison


On Saturday, Team Clearwater volunteers were pounding the pavement in beautiful Madison, Indiana, spreading the word about Gretchen Clearwater's speech there, on Sunday February 19th, 1:30pm, at the Madison-Jefferson County Library.

All of the volunteers (some of whom hadn't been to Madison before) were struck by what a great city it is-- a gorgeous location overlooking the Ohio River, lots of historic homes and great shops, and above all, friendly, welcoming people.

Here are a few pictures we took while we were there...

the beautiful riverfront-- hopefully next time we're here it will be a bit warmer...


...great old storefronts, now occupied by unique shops, cafes, antique places, etc...


The Courthouse...


And last but certainly not least, the reason we were there-- here's one of the many blue leaflets we were given permission to put up in local businesses. This one's in the window of an excellent barbecue place some of us stopped at for lunch.


If you live in Madison or anywhere nearby, please do come to hear Gretchen's speech on Sunday Feb. 19th, at the Library-- entitled "Do You Feel Safer?" She'll be talking about how we can make our country more secure without compromising our values. See you there!

The speech will be a half-hour or so, plus time for people to ask questions...
