CodePINK South Florida

CODEPINK South Florida Mothers' Day Stroll
group

We had 50 people participate in our Mother's Peace Day in the Park. First we gathered and had a pink picnic in the park with plenty of pink food. Between bites we protested on the corner. We read the Mother's Day Proclamation, Letters to Laura Bush and Poems- then the Raging Grannies sang songs of Protest. The group paraded along Atlantic Avenue in Downtown Delray Beach passing out Leaflets and Pink Beads with attached wishes of Peace for Mother's Day, and our website address. Atlantic Avenue is lined with outdoor cafés, so it was a wonderful opportunity for visibility! We concluded with a Candlelight Vigil where we read the 104 names of the soldiers from Florida who have perished in this war and we sang songs of peace. It was a great Public Outreach event and we signed up many new members.
More photos coming soon...
