World Farm Animals Day rally
Please join us for a peaceful rally at the Glenview Park District's Wagner Farm to help raise awareness of the plight of farmed animals. This is a real tangible way to recognize and acknowledge the rights and welfare of farm animals on World Farm Animals Day! You can feel good that you will be rallying for animals that you can actually see and touch.
We will recognize and observe the true spirit of what World Farm Animals Day is about and help bring hope to these animals who count on all of us to protect them.
Our rally will last from 9 AM to 11 AM and will be held on the sidewalk in front of Wagner Farm. We will have posters available, or please bring any of your own as long as they are not graphic in nature.
PLEASE COME TO JOIN US TO SHOW THAT YOU CARE!
There is plenty of parking in the church parking lot or on the street since there is a farmer's market.
After the rally, for those of us who would like to get a bite to eat or a drink and socialize, we can drive a short distance to Sweet Dreams Cafe. They have many delicious vegan options there!

We are so happy that you will be joining us on World Farm Animals Day this Saturday, October 2nd at 9:00 in front of Wagner Farm!
Please follow a couple guidelines at this peaceful rally to insure the greatest results for our animal friends.
1. Please always be respectful of others even if they are not towards you.
2. If you are bringing a poster, please keep it positive about farm animal welfare and with no gory images or specific references to veganism.Posted September 30, 2010 at 6:33 PM
