This and That from Here and There:The April ASIFA-Hollywood Volunteer`s Meeting took place last night at Woodbury University with 10 of our hardcore volunteers in attendance.(thank you Dori and Mary for letting up use your campus)
There is an archive move scheduled for this Saturday morning (April 29th) at the old ASIFA Animation Center,
721 S. Victory Blvd., Burbank at 9 AM running to about 2 PM. It is not really a move so much as a sort and box and break down. We are getting ready for the movers to grab the items and get us out of the old site. Bring your tools, bring you gloves, and come on out and help us close down the Victory Blvd. site.
The reason we need to get done by 2 PM is Jerry Beck`s AFI screening of
Tunes for Toons. This looks and sounds like a great one and I am not going to miss it.

ASIFA-Hollywood Volunteer Meeting (South)

Room 12
I am an Orange County guy in my residence if not my politics. One of the things I get asked all the time by all the other Southys is why are all the ASIFA events in Hollywood and Burbank?
Okay, it is ASIFA-
Hollywood. But we do have a lot of members up and down the left coast. We even have a member in Texas. So with
San Diego Comic Con coming up I felt it would be a good idea to get together with the ASIFA members who live in San Diego and Orange counties. These would seem to be the people best situated to work this event. And I need all the help I can get.
So if you are an ASIFA member who lives in a southern zip code this meeting is for you. And with the price of gas as darn Bush hight as it is it will be nice not to have to spend a couple of hours on the 5 freeway. If this works out I might just schedule a few more of these meetings-south in the future. More info to follow.
