Everyone is invited to come out and celebrate a 50-year old community victory for Ocean Beach. It’s the half-century celebration of the very first election to the OB Planning Board — and we’re having it this Tuesday, May 26th, at Dirty Birds OB. From 6 to 8pm.
We’ll have some finger-foods, good vibes and brief statements in solidarity of this election. There will be representatives from different OB groups including members of the current OB Planning Board.
If you’ve ever been a volunteer for anything in OB, then you’ll appreciate this event — and help honor the hundreds of OBceans who have volunteered for the planning board over the many years it has been in existence.
The very first democratic election of a community planning board was a hard-won victory for OBceans — people worked for years to get to that point, back in May 1976. Yet, it paid off, as thousands of OB renters, property owners and business owners participated in this first election.
If you’d like to show up, please RSVP to the OB Rag staff here: obragblog@gmail.com
The finger foods will be wings, salad, hummus and pita bread. (There’s a no-host bar.)
