Reclaiming Mother's Day 2009
Our local Mothers Day event information:
11:30am Sunday, May 10th the parade starts at the North End of Drake Park.
We will proceed in costume, decorated strollers, on stilts, making joyus music over the bridge to Harmon Park.
At noon in the Harmon Park field area we will gather for the original Mothers Day Proclamation, sign our STAND postcards to our representative, Greg Walden. Then we are free to picnic, party, eat free cake, and celebrate mothering!
We realize that we live in a world that does not prioritize or protect our children's wellbeing and that this will not change without each of us finding the courage and commitment to speak out on their behalf. By mobilizing our gigantic political strength, we can ensure the health, education and safety of every child, not just a privileged few. Let us: whisper this to each other, sing it out in the streets, yell it from our rooftops, declare it in our houses of government: we will protect our children with our personal and political strength, wherever they live on earth!
