Over the past 48 hours, LCV interns Courtenay and Michelle have been whizzing around St Louis driving to community colleges to collect signatures for the renewable energy ballot initiative, and to post flyers requesting help from volunteers.
Poor Michelle. Courtenay is probably the worst map reader in history. She'd struggle if you asked her to find a McDonalds on the highway. Nevertheless we managed to find the colleges and collect almost 100 signatures. Yes! We're really enjoying seeing St Louis, a laid-back city full of Mom-and-Pop sandwich shops, college kids soaking up the sun, and cool coffee shops like "Meshuggas" (located below the Coalition for the Environment office) where the regulars sport dreadlocks and flipflops and stroll about with laptops under their arms.
Gotta run- we're heading to a Santana Concert at the Scott Trade Center to get signatures from the people lining up outside!
