Candlelight Vigil Remembering Connecticut families
Cedar Rose Park: Saturday 15 Dec., 5:00-5:30pm, 1300 Rose Street, Berkeley.
Join us tonight at Cedar Rose Park — we are shaken by what happened yesterday and this is an opportunity to join together as a community, remember the families impacted in Connecticut and show our elected officials that we want meaningful change to prevent gun violence. Please bring candles and signs, if you’d like to make them.
You can sign up if you are going to attend the vigil at MoveOn.org.
