8/25/07: Volunteers divided into two teams and did an UFW awareness campaign blitz at two companies that workers have been complaining about.

8/24/07: Hundreds of farm workers attended a meeting at the UFW's historic 40 Acres. Among the things discussed was the benefits of an union contract and how union workers made more money per hour and had more benefits than their non union counterparts. Camp Justice volunteers received a standing ovation from the farm workers for their tireless hard work.

8/22/07: At 3 pm when workers left work, dozens of Camp Justice volunteers held a "block party" at a empty lot at a busy intersection that workers pass on their way home from work. Between 3:00 and 4:30 close to 500 workers stopoped at this intersection to ask questions about the union, get flyers sign authorization cards. So many workers wanted to pull into the lot and talk to organizers that traffic backed up between Highway 99 and Highway 65.

8/20/07: Camp Justice began on Sunday. It was an exciting beginning. Approximately 75 volunteers--made up of students, members and old time boycott supporters--crowded into the historic 40 acres, ready to do what they could do to help farm workers.

The first day was spent going over what Camp Justice is about this year and what the UFW seeks to accomplish. Among the people sharing their knowledge with this next generation of organizers and UFW supporters was UFW co-founder Dolores Huerta. Her inspiring dialogue motivated these special Camp Justice volunteers.
