Back to vigils

Following the meeting last Friday(3rd) and a mid-winter break, we are back doing vigils for the next 5 weeks, until the next meeting in September.

At this stage we shall go to our old stamping grounds, but with a mixing up of the time (because the days are getting longer), and the days, to give people who are unable to attend on a particular day of the week, a change to go to different sites.

The first vigil will be on Wednesday 8th August, as there is a rally on Thursday 9th August from 4-6pm at 79-81 Victoria Pde, Collingwood. The rally has been called by Refugee Action Collective and is at Jetstar corporate office calling on Qantas and all airlines not to deport asylum seekers to danger.

For further information see:    http://rac-vic.org/upcoming-events/

So here are the vigils-

Wednesday 8th August between 4.15-5.15pm in Clifton Hill, at Raines Reserve, on the corner of Queens Parade and Heidelberg Road (near McDonald"s)

Thursday 16th August between 4.15-5.15pm in Reservoir, on the grass mound at the corner of High Street and Cheddar Road, (near Reservoir Station)

Thursday 23rd August between 4.15-5.15 in Clifton Hill, same spot

Wednesday 29th August between 4.15-5.15 at Reservoir

Wednesday 5th September between 4.15-5.15 back in Clifton Hill

Looking forward to seeing you there,

The Two Maries, (co convenors of the Community Engagement Group)
