* Because many have a block to receiving attachments the flyer that I sent

out kicked back a lot of returned mail. I copied in a cut and paste format the

first page for the list. If you would like me to send the actual flyer with map

and accomodations to other hotels, motels or campgrounds please e-mail me at

DaRocksMom@... and I will be more than happy to send you the attachment!

Please join us for the Military Vaccine Education Conference in Washington,

DC at the Best Western Pentagon, 2480 S. Glebe St., Arlington, VA. A meeting

room has been reserved for both Saturday, May 29th, and Sunday, May 30th between

the hours of 9 a.m.-5 p.m. This will allow you to attend one and/or both of

the exciting weekend events. The conference will be an opportunity to hear

guest speakers, meet and greet one another, and discuss the future educational

outreach efforts

concerning the anthrax vaccine and other biological warfare vaccines in the

pipeline. A VCR with monitor to present the awarding-winning film “Direct

Order” produced by will be available along with several tables of

literature. This is a great opportunity to launch an effective campaign to

educate

the public, military personnel along with local and state representatives. WE

NEED YOU!

We have scheduled a guest speaker for the Rolling Thunder Ceremonies

concerning the AVIP Program. Rolling Thunder began years ago as a main theme of

MIA’s/POW’s. As the years progressed, other veteran issues came into the

forefront.

Rolling Thunder consists of veterans, their families and friends who gather

and have a weekend of speaker discussions related to military issues. Approx.

250,000 Harley motorcycles from around the country, hence Rolling Thunder, begin

the run from

the Pentagon parking lot, travel to the Vietnam Memorial and this year will

have their ceremonies stage across the street from the Korean War Memorial.

Again, this is an awe-inspiring event and a great opportunity to get the message

out and we would like you to join us!

Lodging accommodations will be your responsibility! Lodging accommodations

are filling up quickly. PLEASE plan your trip and make your reservations NOW!

Twenty rooms have been reserved under a discounted “group package plan”. Please

call the toll free number at 1-800-426-6886 and let them know you are with the

Military Vaccine Education Center.

Again, we are in the beginning stages of planning, so your suggestions are

needed for a successful conference. Please let us know what you think! RSVP to

See you there,
