SUMMARY:Gather to say Goodbye to the Golden Rule
DESCRIPTION:Join the Humboldt Bay community in saying farewell to the Golden Rule.  \nDeparting at 11:30 am from the “Madaket Plaza” at the end of C street in Eureka the historic ferry\, Madaket\, will accompany the Golden Rule toward the sea\, returning to the dock at 12:30 pm.  The Golden Rule sank in Humboldt Bay in 2010 and from 2010 to 2015 was restored in the boat yard of Leroy Zerlang. \nDozens of volunteers from the Humboldt Bay community including Veterans For Peace\, Quakers\, and people who love historic wooden boats brought her and her mission back to life.  \nHundreds of people\, mostly in Humboldt County\, donated to the cause and dozens of businesses donated boat parts and food for fundraising parties.   \nA national project of Veterans For Peace\, the Golden Rule is sailing throughout California to support the UN talks for a Treaty to Ban Nuclear Weapons. \nAll of the Golden Rule Project members are proud that Humboldt Bay is the home port of the Golden Rule.   \nShe is well loved by this community and will not likely return to her home port for a decade or more. \nFor more information on the Golden Rule please visit: \nhttps://vfpgoldenruleproject.org/

DESCRIPTION:From Hiroshima to Hope\, Seattle’s annual peace event honoring the victims of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and all victims of war and violence\, takes place from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday\, August 6 at Green Lake. This year’s event marks the 71st anniversary of the atomic bombings.

SUMMARY:Peace Fleet meets Parade of War Ships on Elliott Bay
DESCRIPTION:On August 2 the annual Parade of (Navy war) Ships will arrive in Elliott Bay in downtown Seattle and a flotilla of peace boats will be there to provide a contrasting message.  The Peace Fleet will be bigger than normal this year\, as the Golden Rule inspires people to challenge the idea of war ships coming to our public festivals like Seafair.  These ships and other military recruiting tools like the Blue Angels normalize the weapons of war\, and indeed\, war itself.  It costs over a million dollars to bring these ships into Puget Sound – not a good way for our tax dollars to be spent! \nThe Golden Rule protests in front of two Navy War Ships in Portland for “Fleet Week”\, during the Rose Festival. \nPhoto by Sara Kirschenbaum

SUMMARY:Indigenous Canoe Journey
DESCRIPTION:The Golden Rule has offered to be a support boat for the annual Indigenous Canoe Journey.  We plan to join the canoes Saturday evening\, July 23 in Swinomish near Anacortes and finish on July 29 or 30 in Olympia.  This will enable the crew and the project to make a strong connection and cultural exchanges with several indigenous tribes – in so doing\, our message of peace and nuclear disarmament can be shared with the original peoples of the Pacific Northwest and their messages of peace and protection of mother earth can be shared with us.
