All who are interested in singing peace songs at (actually, near) tomorrow's military parade are welcome to meet in front (back?) of the red church at the corner of Cedar/Lincoln at 11am. That is half an hour *before* the parade starts and will give us time to sing for people arriving as well as to figure out a game plan.

In a curious, only-in-Santa-Cruz turn of events, I've learned that some of the street drummers were actually invited to perform in the parade itself, so joining them for that is also an option. Evidently that will be just drumming, no songs with lyrics, in keeping with the "apolitical" spirit of the parade. But I think they will be in some sort of uniform, again, keeping with the intention of the parade to "celebrate people in uniform."

Once again, the parade itself runs from 11:30-12:30. It proceeds from Pacific/Cathcart, up to the town clock, and makes a hairpin turn to
finish off in front of the vets' bldg. So I'm thinking the corner of Front/Cooper could also be a good place to sing as the parade is dispersing, but we can discuss that when we meet at 11.
