We’ll be working on drafting the proposed cannabis legislation for Wisconsin’s 2013 session. During this first meeting our primary goal is to create lists of things that we do & do not want to be included in the bill(s).
Please familiarize yourself with the legislation that has been passed in other states, as well as that which is currently proposed.

Northern Wisconsin NORML meets on the 2nd Thursday of each month for food, fellowship and public meeting. All new attendees to the meeting will receive a free activist kit and the chapter will be giving away some additional products and merchandise at the July 12th, 2012 meeting.
The Northern Wisconsin NORML T shirt Design contest is still underway. We would like to do this on a monthly basis but we need more design submissions by artists. This project just might be a quarterly T-shirt contest without your input and activity! We are planning on printing a limited edition of each design and then moving onto the next! But, we need your help! So artists, you have free reign. People sitting in a circle with good ideas, submit your designs also! We will pick a winner once per month (or quarter).
Check the calendar of events often for updates, things to bring to the meeting and to confirm agendas.
Join us from 4:20pm to 5:30pm as the chapter board of directors, along with members and supporters enjoy fellowship as an informal group gathering together prior to our meeting. The meeting location is the Harmony Cafe, 233 E College Ave in Appleton, which has food and beverages available for sale.
At 5:30pm we begin our general meeting, which is expected to last until 7:00pm, sometimes finishing early, but we have the room reserved up till 8pm in case we need to go longer.
Meetings are open to the general public and you need not a be a member to attend.
Meetings are also broadcast over the Internet via Google + Hangouts. NOTE: YOU WILL NOT BE ON CAMERA UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE, ONLY BOARD OF DIRECTORS MODERATING THE MEETING ARE BROADCAST.
The chapter will post the link once live on the Northern Wisconsin NORML Facebook Page, but it should be this one below:
