Parade to the Gates of Truax, Saturday Feb. 29 – no F-35s!

Show Up for Clean Water and Safe Skies!!! Saturday, February 29th 12:00 to 2:00pm Assemble at Noon: the open space at Wright & Anderson Streets Join the mass mobilization of visible and peaceful opposition to the basing of F-35 war planes at Truax Field. The parade and presence at the gates of Truax will send a clear message to the Air Force and local proponents that there truly is widespread community concern; that large numbers of people across Madison and Dane County do not want the jets here. The timing is crucial. The final version of the Air Force’s Environmental Impact Study (EIS) has come out, incorporating over 6000 comments that were submitted in response to the draft. The decision on whether or not to base the attack jets at Truax will follow March 30 or later. The military is paying attention to public sentiment as they make their decision. Join in sending a clear visible message that the planes are not wanted here! If you are interested in helping to publicize or to organize some creative activities for this event, please contact us. Families and children welcome.
