Valley Nuke March Is July 30

Anti-nuclear activists are asking the public to join them on a march to the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant on July 30. Marchers can start in Keene or Brattleboro. Vermont Yankee is three miles from Massachusetts and a stone’s throw from New Hampshire.

The march on Vermont Yankee is part of a 25 day March for a Nuclear Free World that will begin in Boston and end near Albany, New York. It will make stops at the Pilgrim nuclear power plant in eastern Massachusetts, and at the Seabrook nuclear power plant in eastern New Hampshire.

More information about the march is available from Tim Bullock. He can be reached by e-mail at nfwPeacePilgrimage2011@gmail.com or by phone at (413) 485-8469.

The march will end at the Peace Pagoda in Grafton, NY. A photo of the pagoda is at
