Draft Beer, Not Kids - Saturday, October 17 - See You There!
Sacramento-Yolo CODEPINK: Women for Peace invites you to Draft Beer, Not Kids - a free all-ages show on October 17 at 8pm at Luna’s Café. The aim of the event is to give kids (high school & college-aged youth) alternatives to military service, as well as giving them a taste of what the military is REALLY like - as opposed to the Army's commercials.
DJ Galaxy (www.myspace.com/djgalaxy916) will be performing, and speakers from the We Are Not Your Soldiers (http://www.wearenotyoursoldiers.org/) project, as well as others will be there. The main thrust of the event is to get high school students to opt-out of being contacted by military recruiters, a requirement of the No Child Left Behind Act. Also on hand will be plenty of resources for alternatives to military service.
(And even though the theme mentions beer, there will be NO underage drinking!) Luna’s Café is located at 1414 16th St, Sacramento, CA 95814-5004.
For more information, contact Natalie Wormeli at (530) 756-1900 or Heather Woodford at hethre_woodford@yahoo.com.
Please feel free to forward to your lists and post on your websites!
Peace,
Heather E. Woodford
