The Arizona Counter-Recruitment Coalition(AZCRC) hands out 250 flyers at 2 valley high schools.
On Monday Dec. 6th, three counter-recruiters drove to South Mountain High School on 7th St. and Broadway and handed out about 100 flyers. We started on the west side of campus and when the flow of kids leaving school seemed kind of slow we moved one counter-recruiter to the north side and learned that a lot of kids leave from that side. Three people flyering seemed to be enough. Security was minimal.
Then on Monday Dec. 13th, two counter-recruiters drove to Carl Hayden High School on 35th Ave and the I-10. We arrived late, never a good idea. After talking to the Principal(who was standing outside) and giving him our literature(which he greedily read), we proceeded to hand out about 150 flyers. The north entrance is very busy with kids leaving school. If six counter-recruiters were present we could have handed out 500 copies. School security was everywhere and very, very polite.
The AZCRC has meetings every sunday at the Gentle Strength co-op. The meetings start at 6:30 or 7pm.
