On Saturday, June 24th, United Poultry Concerns will hold our
Tenth Annual Mourning Vigil for Chickens, in Ocean City Maryland.
Those long metal buildings on the way to the beach are filled
with thousands of young birds who will never see a blade of grass
or stretch their wings in the warm sunlight or feel the soft
feathers of a mother hen, or hear a rooster crow. The poor parent
birds are locked up inside another prison.
Please join us in speaking out for these birds on the boardwalk
at the beach. We will display banners and posters and distribute
thousands of leaflets to boardwalkers. We will hold mounted color
photos illustrating a six-week old chicken's life from the
chicken house through the slaughter house. We need you!
|
Directions: | In Ocean City, Md turn onto North Baltimore Street.
Go 5 blocks and make a right onto 5th Street. 5th Street runs
straight to the boardwalk. That's where we'll be.
Plan to car pool from your area. For information about car
pooling from Washington DC, call Franklin at 301-564-9164 or
email franklin@smart.net.
