UPCOMING PROGRAM: SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, 2020 (March with the LWVIL!)
This year, the Chicago Women's March will be hosting TWO marches! The first is on Saturday, January 18, 2020. Let's show the people power of the League! We are "in charge" of the sidewalk on the last block of the five-block march (Adams between State and Dearborn), which is themed GET OUT THE VOTE.
OPTIONS
You are welcome to with friends and carry whatever sign you'd like OR. . . . Meet at 10:30 AM at the lobby of the LWVIL Offices located (332 S. Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60604, close to the corner of Van Buren and Michigan Avenue). Plan to walk over to the marchsite between 10:45 AM and 11:00 AM.
PARKING
Secure your parking spot ahead of time. Utilize parking apps like Spot Hero and Park Whiz to pay for your parking in advance of the march day. (Please reach out to other local League members to travel together and lessen your carbon footprint.)
POSTERS AND PAPER
POSTERS AND PAPER
Posters will be available for all, but you can also bring your own. (Please note that if you are marching with the LWVIL, your signs will need to be nonpartisan.) The march is "going green" and has asked all marchers and organizations to eliminate all flyers and sign-up sheets. The League will be using SMS text message to engage with other marchers. More information will be made available closer to the 18th.
RSVP AND WEAR RED!
RSVP below to help us organize numbers and to receive further details. Our block has been assigned RED. Let's show how many League members are at the march by wearing red.
QUESTIONS?
