Do we have representation here? This would be an opportunity to infiltrate the enemy, on their soil, bringing to light the Nat'l trust is not living up to it's role, as it is denying assitance to our cause. I could envision one or two (or more) tables with DQ supporters all decked out in Save the DQ gear, and all we do is contantly ask why won't you help. What is needed by US to have your orgianzation to become involved. We could be a nice well mannered group or we could be totally disruptive to their agenda...
They aren't responding to us, MAKE THEM LISTEN, if we get kicked out or asked to leave it then becomes a media moment, it has worked before in other campaigns, look at Cindy Sheehan, and all places she infiltrated to cause disruptionwith her personal anti-war campaign.


Here is the "fluff" they procliam.

Save America's Treasures is a public-private partnership that works—its success enriches our lives and honors the past with gifts to the future.

About the Partnership
In the words of Richard Moe, National Trust President, “Save America’s Treasures is the country’s most significant preservation effort in over 40 years.”

Save America's Treasures at the National Trust for Historic Preservation is the partnership's principal private partner. Through creative collaboration with preservation organizations, private donors, foundations, corporations and media outlets, SAT at the National Trust raises awareness and new resources for the nation’s most important historic and cultural preservation efforts. The program also plays an important role as an on-the-ground 'eyes and ears' for the federal program. We work closely with a variety of projects across the country, meeting with project representatives, providing advice and guidance on the federal grant process, often reviewing draft applications as appropriate, and providing assistance in meeting the required match when possible. We are dedicated to reaching out and identifying strong candidates and encourage you to keep us informed of any projects you think worthy, and to contact us if you have questions or would like more information.
