Celebrate Sunshine Week 2010
March 14-20, 2010
Sunshine Week is a national initiative to open a dialogue about the importance of open government and freedom of information. Participants include print, broadcast and online news media, civic groups, libraries, nonprofits, schools and others interested in the public’s right to know.
Sunshine Week is led by the American Society of News Editors and is funded primarily by a challenge grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation of Miami.
Locally, check for daily updates from the League of Women Voters Minnesota at: http://www.stateofdemocracymn.org/
