Anti-MTR Youth Summit, Coal River Valley of West Virginia

Help Stop Mountain Top Removal! Stand in Solidarity with communities facing MTR Coal Mining!

The beautiful Coal River Valley is hosting the 2008 Anti-MTR Youth Summit from November 21 to 23, 2008. One hour south of Charleston, WV, it is home to wild bears, ginseng hunters, and strip mining. Activities will include visiting and learning about Marsh Fork Elementary, precariously placed under a 2.8 billion gallon sludge dam, and visiting Larry Gibson’s homeplace on Kayford Mountain and viewing the MTR site there. Hear the stories of affected community members. Come to learn, to get mad
enough to spit, and then to strategize and network with student activists from around the country.

To register or to learn more about Coal River Mountain Watch and the campaign to end Mountain Top Removal!
