[Catherine Rauschuber]

Please read below an announcement for an art contest/benefit for the SF
League of Conservation Voters.  As a board member of the SFLCV for the past
five years (fellow Socialites Tom and 'Deep are also board members, and
'Deep has been the President I think since God was a child;-) I can
personally vouch for the great work that we do at the intersection of local
politics/policy and the environmental movement. Our mission is to promote
environmental protection through active participation in the San Francisco
political system and to enhance the integrity of that political system for
all San Franciscans. Feel free to call or email me (or Tom or 'Deep!) with
any questions about SFLCV, the art contest, or the event itself on July
21st.

Warmly,
