UPDATE: The State of Our Occupation

Post from Occupy Dallas.com


Newcomers and Old Friends,

I'm going to describe some of the changes we made today at camp as well as update you on our current status. If you'd like to join us, consider this your guide:
Your first destination should be our Welcome Tent. Once inside, you will find helpful occupiers which will ask you for some information and give you some as well. Essentially, your name (or handle), any contact information you care to share and what workgroup or committee you'd like to join.
In our occupation, everyone has responsibilities and we've separated those into “work groups”. They are: Art, Education, Protest, Medical, Safety, Media, Cooking, Outreach and of course, Protest. New groups form and merge almost on a daily basis! There are no unemployed in our camp. Everyone has an occupation. Pick something that interests you. If it doesn’t fit, don’t get discouraged. You can always pick another group. Most of our members work in more than one.
