This may be the most exciting and signficant thing you can do!
Join us for a Global Day of Climate Action on Sept. 19.
Major events will be taking place around the world Sept. 19-21.
Our event is a group line dance to be staged in the outdoor area of the Niagara Falls Convention Centre.
Why?
Because the offical opposition in the Ontario legislature, the NDP, are having their convention and we want them to voice our concerns about the lack of attention to the climate crisis by our current provincial government, as well as our concerns about Bills 5 &17.
So ...
Join us by dancing (rehearsals Aug. 6 - Sept 10., every Wed. 4:15-5:15 at the NOTL Community Centre (14 Anderson Lane, studio).
Or simply come out and watch as our audience on Sept. 19,
