No Pipelines Action Training!

On April 4,5, and 6th Rising Tide Vancouver Coast Salish Territories
is organizing
a convergence weekend called No Pipelines!: Action Training for Climate
Justice in Vancouver BC, unceded Coast Salish Territories. This weekend of
mass movement trainings, education, and affinity building will better
prepare our communities to take direct action against the numerous projects
which threaten us and help to develop and realise our power when working
together.

The weekend includes over a dozen workshops and trainings, honoured
speakers forums, poetry, live music, film, and two large collective meals.
But to pull this off we NEED your help!

We are calling for volunteers to help with the weekend. We need help with
child care, meals, setting up/cleaning spaces, and postering. On both Friday
 and Sundayevenings we need 4-6 committed people to help with meal
organization, serving, and clean up and another 4-6 to help with organizing
the spaces. We will also need a large number of people willing to volunteer
for childcare!  The shifts are about 3 hours long, with 2-3 people minding
the kiddos together per shift.  There will be engaging and child-directed
programming, and we'd love more ideas for activities. Here's your chance to
meet some rad kids!  Please let Kat know if you can help out with child
care: katilda00 at gmail.com

Throughout the weekend we will need help changing the layout/use of spaces
and will also likely need some folks around for the inevitable
uncertainties that pop up. In total we are asking for 30 volunteers who can
commit to help with the training. Please contact Cody if you can help out
with any non child-care volunteering:codykolenchuk at gmail.com

Rising Tide is a volunteer run collective. We organize out of living rooms
and coffee shops and rely on community support to organize events and
actions. If you would like more details about locations and specific times
or tasks, or can commit to a shift in any of the above capacities please
reply before Friday the 28th so we can plan accordingly. If you can poster
your neighbourhood, campus, or workplace let us know and we'll send you our
posters.

In Solidarity,

Peter
