It's at the SAWDUST FESTIVAL which is 2 blocks from the hiring site. (it's within walking distance, so maybe we can hit both at the same time).  <br>  <br> The parking will be horrible, due to the popularity of this art festival, so if you can carpool, please do so. I mistakenly thought parking was free, but it's $1.50 per hour.  <br>  <br> ------------------------  <br>  <br> LAGUNA BEACH  <br>  <br> Laguna Canyon Road\/Laguna Canyon Frontage Rd.  <br>  <br> JULY 16TH * SATURDAY  <br>  <br> 10AM-12PM  <br><br> **This is NOT at the day labor site**  <br><br> ARTS FESTIVAL RALLY!  <br><br> The City of Laguna Beach supports an Illegal Day Labor site through income generated by their World Famous Art Festivals. We are gathering in a peaceful rally in front of the arts center to educate those entering the festival and the drive-by public to the illegal activities their tickets are paying for.  <br><br> Bring your signs:  <br><br> \"Shame on Laguna Beach\"  <br>  <br> \"Laguna Beach Supports Illegals\"  <br>  <br> \"Laguna Beach Arts Support Illegals\"  <br>  <br> \"Laguna Beach Residents Before Illegals\"  <br>  <br> \"Your Art Ticket Pays For Mexico\"  <br><br> Also bring the usual signs denouncing Illegal Immigration and Day Labor Sites.  <br>  <br> --------------------------  <br><br> Directions: From Los Angeles take the 405 Freeway into Irvine. Take the 133 Highway (south) towards Laguna Beach. This highway turns into Laguna Canyon Rd.  <br>  <br> From San Diego take the 5 Freeway to 405 Freeway, take 133 Highway (south) towards Laguna Beach. The 133 turns into Laguna Canyon Rd.  <br>  <br> Parking: There is metered parking up and down the street ($1.50 per hour. Quarters only) Or there is a ($5) parking area as you enter the canyon called ACT V parking. You will then take a shuttle bus to the Sawdust Festival site.  <br>  <br> Bring your family and swimsuits and enjoy an afternoon at the beautiful beach after the rally  <br><br> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sawdustartfestival.org\/\">http:\/\/www.sawdustartfestival.org\/<\/a>  <br><br> (Last month several American citizens and residents of Laguna Beach lost their homes in a major landslide.

I know many wrote letters, but just these two were printed, probably because they were Laguna Beach residents. One of these is mine.\r\n\r\nThank you all for your help with this. I am seeing more and more 'talk' around the beach communities here about this issue. I'm planning to do more and won't stop until the day workers site here is closed. Please contact me if you have suggestions. I'll continue to post any info coming out of this area. Thanks again.\r\n\r\n\r\nJob Center is bad for Laguna Beach\r\n\r\nYes, absolutely the immigration status of the workers at the Laguna Canyon worker's site should be checked. As a Laguna Beach resident, I am furious over the city's use of public funds to maintain and support the day labor site. The workers who show up there every day are not Laguna Beach residents nor are they even American citizens.\r\n\r\nLaguna Beach prides itself on its liberal views and openness to all cultures and races, but then they give public money to an isolated group that excludes all other races and cultures. The day workers site is set up and run for the exclusive use of Latinos.\r\n\r\nThis month, our city will see a new bunch of high school graduates who will be looking for part-time summer work. But that opportunity is not available to them.\r\n\r\nAlthough I am opposed to any funding of day labor sites, as there are many, many private businesses who assist in part-time labor for employers, I am outraged over the funding of assisting undocumented workers. There are laws in our state making it a crime to assist or employ a non-citizen. Laguna Beach thumbs its nose at our laws each time they write that check.\r\n\r\nSince the majority of the workers at the site are non-citizens, we must assume they are driving our beautiful city's streets with no car insurance. Already we have a congested and dangerous canyon, why would our city's government encourage uninsured drivers here?\r\n\r\nYesterday, during a televised public meeting, our mayor, Pearson-Schneider, asked for donations to help the residents who have lost their multimillion dollar homes, but they give thousands and thousands of dollars each year to help undocumented workersand non-Laguna Beach residents.
