Friends of Bute
We’ve got bus transportation to the Rally for Rivers on Saturday, April 4th.
Catch the noon ferry and join with other islanders who are going to 1) have fun, and 2) tell government how much we care for BC’s wild rivers. We’re going to sing and chant and wave our placards; excellent speakers will deliver our message to local and provincial politicians meeting at the Association of Vancouver Island and Coastal Communities. Let's tell them we want to have a say in what happens to BC Rivers and BC energy!
Bus departs CR at 12:15 from the ferry terminal. The Rally for Rivers happens downtown at the Nanaimo Convention Centre starting at 2:30. Parade to after-rally gathering where we can share more info, ask questions, collaborate and strategize. Come home feeling satisfied and energized! Bus leaves Nanaimo in time to catch the 8:30 ferry.
So pack some food, gear up for the weather and join your neighbors in a show of support for Bute Inlet – and all of BC’s rivers!
Bus fare is only $16 return. Please call soon to reserve your seat! If we receive enough early commitments, we’ll organize a second bus. Please call Carol at 285-2771.
