Hello Fellow Animal Advocates,
So our next monthly meeting and dinner will be at the Pulse Cafe next Tuesday, December 9th, 5:00–7:00! The meeting will start closer to 5:30, but please come closer to 5:00 if you’re planning to order food. All are welcome. We’ll be planning our winter events and discussing goals and plans for 2026! Meet fellow animal advocates while treating yourself to The Pulse's amaaaazing vegan food! 🙂
We'll have some very special guest speakers too!
Matthew King of Christian Animal Rights Association (
https://christiananimalrights.com/) and Karen Bacon of Positive Change for Animals (
https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17ecHcPm5A/) will provide an update on the Worcester bullriding ordinance campaign and ways you can help.
We will also kick off a campaign to ban rodeos in Westfield! We plan on creating a petition and ordinance next year to buck the annual rodeo out of the Westfield Fair.
And we are thrilled to have WMARA's co-founder, Steve Bernstein, join us! :) Steve was an inspiration after seeing his presentation about animal rights at Cafe Evolution in 2011 and was happy to help me create WMARA. We'll be celebrating our 15th anniversary soon! Steve is an author, educator and activist -

Steve will also have some free animal rights books he's trying to find a new home for.
