On Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2011, Dana Beal of Cures Not Wars is facing sentencing for serious cannabis charges at the Iowa County Courthouse in Dodgeville WI at 1pm. Dana is a longtime activist who hails from New York City but has long ties to Wisconsin.
Please join Dana’s friends and supporters 1pm Tuesday at the courthouse in Dodgeville, which is about 45 miles from downtown Madison. All supporters are welcome but medical cannabis patients and supporters are particularly urged to attend to draw attention to Dana’s longstanding activist efforts in support of legalizing this medicine.

The evening before, Dana’s friends will be sharing information on two of Dana’s major lifetime causes, medical cannabis and ibogaine as a treatment for addiction at the Madison NORML Drug Conference.
With millions of Americans already legally using medical cannabis in the now 16 states and Washington DC where it is legal, it is a topic of great interest in Wisconsin. Rising rates of heroin and opiate addiction have pushed treatment options to the brink. Ibogaine offers a natural means to help cure addictions.

Wow, this is amazing news. When I became active back in October 2009 there was only one meeting choice to go to if you wanted to be NORML. There are always many ways to support marijuana reform and make a difference in your community, but I wanted to find out more about the organization NORML and how I could help them. So I set out for Madison to see what all the buzz was about. Multiple ways to help, active marijuana legislation and a network of people working hard of the issue on behalf of us in Wisconsin is what I found, so I joined them.
Multiple events, passed medical marijuana referendums and stagnant legislation over the past two years has lead to a marijuana movement in Wisconsin which continues to grow! The week of September 12th looks to offer some choices for marijuana activists with FIVE different NORML chapters holding meetings throughout the state.
1) September 12th 7:00-9:00pm Madison NORML meeting. Location: Wil Mar Center Youth Room in basement 7-9pm, Wil Mar Center 953 Jenifer St. Madison, WI 53703.
2) September 12th, 7-8:30pm Southeastern Wisconsin NORML meeting. Location: Brewing Grounds for Change Cafe located at 2008 N. Farwell Ave in Milwaukee, WI
3) September 14th, 6:00-8:00pm Eau Claire NORML meeting. Location: L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library – Eau Claire Room, 400 Eau Claire Street in Eau Claire, WI 54701
4) September 15th, 6:00-8:00pm Northern Wisconsin NORML Meeting. Location: Harmony Cafe, 233 E. College Ave, Appleton, WI 54911
5) September 15th, 6:00-8:00pm The First Ever NORML Meeting in Beautiful Downtown Kendall Wisconsin. Location: Wood Pipes Smoke Shoppe & Speak Easy 112 West South Railroad Street Kendall WI 54638
