35. Occupy Houston (day 3):
From the website:

The Schedule for Occupation: Day Three, Saturday, October 8.
October 8th, 2011 · Kevin · Announcements, Events One comment - Tags: occupyhouston, schedule

Greetings from Occupied Houston! We’re standing strong at Eleanor Tinsley Park and show no signs of stopping! Here’s our current schedule for Occupation: Day 3.

We’ll be holding General Assembly meetings at 12:00 noon and 7:00pm. All changes to how Occupy Houston operates, how it spreads it’s message, or even the message itself are decided here. Attend these and guide the revolution!
There are logistics volunteer group meetings at 10:00am, 5:00pm, and 10:00pm. Logistics plans the nuts and bolts of our occupation, and need regular meetings to make sure the occupation’s wheels are well oiled. If you’ve not experienced Occupation Houston yet, want to stand with us and contribute to our occupation, but don’t know where to start then this is the place to be! Find them near the medics’ area.
The facilitation volunteer group is meeting at 8:00am and 6:00pm to train people to run our General Assemblies. Meeting facilitators are invaluable to us, keep us on track, and make sure our assemblies stay productive.

We need all these group meetings to keep the occupation train on the track. Everyone is welcome to come to Eleanor Tinsley Park to stand with the 99%, tell your story, and help spread the word! STAND STRONG! Together we can erase the corruption that plagues our democracy!

From facebook:

What they need -

If you would like to make solid donations, please consider the following:
canned foods (We have an electric cooker coming which will not pose a fire hazard), non-perishable sources of protein for both vegans/vegetarians and meat eaters, prepared dishes for immediate consumption are welcome as well. At the moment there is plenty of water and fruit, as well as bread and peanut butter. Thank you for your generous offerings, you're awesome, Houston!

We have not had a need for this yet and hopefully will not need it at all, but the Medics could use a couple large bottles of milk of magnesia in case of pepper sprayings. Also, Houston has mosquitoes, so bug spray is welcome.

A few more electrical cords and power bars could be useful as well.
