    Occupy Boston’s General Assembly has consented to hold the Saturday, May 5, General Assembly at the fabulous Wake Up the Earth Festival in Jamaica Plain!

    The WUTE Festival is NOT being rescheduled because of rain. So, we’re looking forward to seeing you Saturday!!

    SCHEDULE for Saturday, May 5

    10 am: Occupy Boston supporters will rally at 3134 Washington St. to be part of the parade leaving from Egleston Square. We’ll be marching under the Occupy Boston banner.

    10:30: Parade preparations at Peace Garden, at the corner of School St. and Washington (near Stony Brook T Stop, Orange line). Here’s a map from the T to the Peace Garden: http://g.co/maps/4pcp8

    11:30: Parade sets forth from corner of School St. and Washington

    12:00-4:30 Tabling and Kids Activities in Southwest Corridor Park, 38 New Heath St (across from Stony Brook T Stop)

    5:00: General Assembly, Southwest Corridor Park– look for the OB banner!!

    9:00: After-party at Spontaneous Celebrations (45 Danforth Street)

    The Wake Up the Earth Festival is the best summer festival in Boston–it not only commemorates a major victory of the 99%–it brings together one of the most politicized and diverse neighborhoods in the city. Wake Up the Earth—WUTE–is a great opportunity to meet, greet and galvanize thousands of people while listening to live music!
