The Occupy Wall Street Movement set to begin in Green Bay  

The organizers of the Occupy Green Bay movement, and off shoot of the Occupy Wall Street movement, Brown County Courthouse by MAK photoCompressedare planning to start a weekend long or longer protest here in Green Bay  this Friday, October 14th at 3pm.  They have selected a location of the Front of City Hall, and/or the Brown County Court House.  There is last meet at IQ’s Bar tonight at 6pm for last minute organizing.   Photo by Robert SchultzeI am sure that they will be looking for supporters of the movement to come down and join them.  One would wonder as well if a “base of operations” is in the works.  If a downtown landowner would not mind having some protest “campers” on an empty lot, or someone offer an empty building to use as a warming and logistics base, they would be much appreciated for supporting their country and the cause through Occupy Green Bay
