WHERE: Gather at Arnold Park and East Ave.

WHEN: Monday, May 27th 10am! 

Please save the date on your calendars!

We have a permit to hold the Peace Parade immediately following the Memorial Day parade along East Avenue and Main Street. So please save the date and time, and please notify your other peace, social justice and faith-based groups of the importance of their participation in this year’s Peace Parade.

It is essential that we have a strong pro-peace, anti-war presence at this Memorial Day event, to serve as an antidote to the glorification of the military that remains typical of the traditional Memorial Day parade.
