Stand up for your friends November 13th from noon to 1:40 in front of the East Avenue Wegmans in Rochester.
We will stand on the public sidewalk on the corner of East Avenue and Winton Rd.
Rain date is Sunday, November 20th. Postponement will be announced by noon the day before.
Signs will be provided or you can bring your own (but we ask that you please make sure they are aligned with our core values). Keep signs very simple – this is auto traffic.
We never shout. Please don’t wear animal products such as fur, leather, silk, wool, etc. – people notice and comment. Please don’t bring pets.
Parking is on-street.
A holiday potluck will follow on the 13th – the potluck will not be postponed in case of rain.
Thank you to Mary for organizing this event.
