July Events

Many excellent events are coming up this summer that are well worth attending. Here are just a few.

DEFEND OUR WATER and STOP THE EAGLE MINE: Save the Wild UP/WAVE Campaign Kickoff this Saturday, July 9, at 1:00 PM. Speakers, activities, and informational table will be at Marquette County Court House. The day will continue with a RALLY at the Mine Site Gate at 4:30 pm and Food and Social in Big Bay. Fireworks will be at 10:30 pm on Squaw Beach.

Ceremoninal Long Walk on the Yellow Dog Plains: On Sunday, July 17 at noon, there will be a commemoration of Eagle Rock as a sacred site – both to Tribal Nations and to the people who have long held Eagle Rock as a symbol of this effort to stop this mine on public lands.  We need people to gather and give one step, one half mile, two miles, four miles, or whatever they are able, to the effort to walk around this site three times. More details can be found by clicking on the document below.
