Instead of soccer camp, why not send your kids to "Action Camp" next year?
They'll learn important skills which will serve them well throughout life.

Better yet, why not make it a family vacation?

From the online prospectus:

>>Since Ruckus was founded in 1995, thousands of activists have attended our
week-long training programs throughout North America. We've shared skills
with recognized frontline organizers from all over the world - activists
combating authoritarian regimes and multinational corporations' ecological
obliteration and human rights abuses. We call it Action Camp. U.S. News and
World Report call it "Basic Training for Tree Huggers". The New York Times
asked, "Can Green Rads Be Tamed?" and a spokesperson for B.C. lumber
interests stated, "it's just insanity." Flattering praise indeed.<<

Also, be sure to read the online "Ruckus Society Media Manual" at
http://ruckus.org/man/media_manual.html. It has lots of good tips for
people wanting to raise an effective ruckus.
