Several dozen women and men from Big Bear are going to the Women’s March on Saturday, January 20th and our numbers are growing! We have groups going to LA and Riverside, plus a group rallying in solidarity up here. I hope you can join us! Here is some helpful information:
LOS ANGELES
9 am – 4 pm, starts at Pershing Square, 532 S Olive St, LA 90013
REGISTER FOR A FREE TICKET:
Take the train into LA:
Take the Metrolink from San Bernardino (a weekend pass is $10 for a round trip including all transfers) to Union Station, then get on the Metro Red Line to Pershing Square. Trains will be crowded, so it would be a good idea to get on the earliest train that leaves San Bernardino around 7:00 am.
If you are interested in staying in San Bernardino the night before, the La Quinta Inn on Hospitality Lane has rooms for $89 per night.

RIVERSIDE – WOMEN’S MARCH INLAND EMPIRE
10 am – 12 noon, on the historic steps of the courthouse, 4050 Main St, Riverside 92501
REGISTER FOR A FREE TICKET:
Check out all of the awesome local groups participating (47 today and growing daily!)
Parking is FREE on the streets and in public garages on the weekends.
We have several carloads going so far, and plan to go out to lunch somewhere after the march. If you’d like to drive, or hitch a ride, or have a carload going and want to try to meet there, please let me know.
PLEASE REGISTER FOR WHICHEVER MARCH YOU ARE ATTENDING! You can still show up without registering, but it helps them get a head count. LA had 750,000 and Riverside had 4000 last year.
BIG BEAR RALLY IN SOLIDARITY
1 pm – 3 pm on the corner in front of Vons and DIY (no registration needed; just show up!)
If you are unable to attend one of the marches down the hill, please join our friends on the corner in front of Vons and DIY for all or part of the 2 hours to speak out here in Big Bear!
SIGN MAKING PARTY WED, JAN 17 5:30 PM
Please let me know if you’d like to attend and I will send you the directions and details about what to bring. (Again, if you’re interested contact directly the club, we will forward your contact info to the organizers. This event is held in private home, so we cannot provide direct contact info)
On January 21, 2017 millions of people around the world marched in what was one of the largest demonstrations in political history, with marches in all 50 states and on all 7 continents. A year later, it is even more critical to have our voices (and votes!) be heard. I hope you can be a part of this historic event.
Remember to bring a sign, water, camera and your pink pussy hat!
See you there!
