Venceremos Brigade PfP at the Peace Bridge
August 8, 2016 @ 5:00 am - 8:00 pm EDT
FreeOn Monday morning, August 8th, the Venceremos Brigade will be returning from Cuba, crossing the Peace Bridge back into the U.S. There will be a rally on the U.S. side, to greet the Brigadistas, and a welcoming picnic at Prospect Park (corner of Columbus Parkway and Columbus Parkway West)—all starting early Monday. (Front Park wasn’t available for the event date). Organized by IAC.
We hear that IFCO/pastors for peace is partnering with Venceremos Brigade for this year’s Peace Bridge crossing, with a large-ish group–made up of many former-year brigadistas and caravanistas, driving into Buffalo, to arrive around 10am.
Also, the Canada Cuba Friendship Association – Niagara will have a BBQ on Sunday, August 7th. They plan to also host an event on the Fort Erie side on the Monday morning.
