The Speaking portion of Hash Bash is on U of M property, the area arond the campus is city property and Ann Arbor has a simple $25.00 fine for Marijuna possesion, so they do not hassle us. We abide by the rules and don't toke on State property. Information about the Medical Marijuana bill will be available, Music (Three bands), some pipes that only hold tobacco, hash bash clothing with portions of proceeds going to MINorml. Last year it was cold and windy, managed to toke up a couple of new friends and then I had to go, this old body can't take that cold. This year, Jon SInclair, who was imprisoned with a ten year sentance for 2 joints, and the reason the hash bash originally started, will be one of the speakers. There is no admission charge, we will be passing the hat to help defer Jon's expenses. It would be great to get back to the crowds of thousands they used to draw, I suppose Jon Lennon had something to do with the early attendance, I hope the Medical Marijuana Petition brings them back this year.
