March Together in the DORCHESTER DAY PARADE!
(AND COOKOUT AFTER!)
Sunday, June 2
Gather in Lower Mills by 12:30pm

Dorchester People for Peace will be marching again this year in the Dorchester Day Parade on June 4 along with our friends and allied organizations.
We’re in Division 2 this year: Line up by 12:30 (or earlier if you like – our blue Honda-CRV will be there from at least 11am) on Richmond St. between Dorchester Ave. and Adams St. (see map below)
Every year Dorchester People for Peace reserves a place in the parade, then invites our friends. Together we bring our vision and our values to thousands of people along the four-mile route. Join us this year!
Our message will focus on building a neighborhood-based movement to resist wars and military interventions abroad – while opposing racism, dispossession and budget cuts at home; reducing excessive military spending; and funding urgent needs in our communities. Thousands of marchers and parade watchers will see our banners and get our anti-war flyers.
Marchers will gather around Noon in Dorchester Lower Mills (Richmond St.) with the parade kick-off about 1pm. We’ll have our after-Parade barbeque and celebration at Jeff Klein’s house, 123 Cushing Ave. from about 3:30pm. We’ll have hamburgers and hotdogs – please bring a dish or drinks if you’re able (You can drop off what you are bringing before the parade – Jeff’s house is walking distance from the Savin Hill T-stop)
WHERE: Lower Mills, Dorchester
BRING: A sun hat, comfortable walking shoes (it’s four miles), water. You can bring a banner for your organization if you have the people to carry it.
COOKOUT: After the parade at Jeff Klein’s, 123 Cushing Ave (near the end of the parade and near Savin Hill T station). We’ll have hamburgers and hotdogs – bring a dish or drinks if you can.
