'Stop the Violence, Increase the Peace' rally organizers are looking for volunteers
The organizers of the "Stop the Violence, Increase the Peace" rally are looking for volunteers. The group will hold a an informal meeting on Sunday, February 22 at the Pier View in Onset to discuss final thoughts and ideas for set-up and clean-up.
Selectmen Brenda Eckstrom is looking for people who will be able to take care of last minute details for the event planned for Saturday, February 26 at 6:30 p.m. at the Wareham High School gym.
During the past several weeks, Eckstrom was joined by community leaders to devise long-term goals to complement plans for a rally to end community violence. The idea was introduced following a spurt in violent crime in Wareham.
If you are interested in volunteering for the rally you can attend Sunday's meeting or contact Marji Wyatt at oycmwyatt@yahoo.com.
