Invite to Dolores Huerta/Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage Planning Meeting on Fri., Mar. 21 at 3:30 PM

This is your invite to the next Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage March and Fiesta meeting this Friday, March 21 at 3:30 PM at the Pomona Pride Center (235 W. Mission Blvd).  (On March 31, we will be taking people to the UFW immigrant rights march in Delano where they are expecting anywhere between 3 – 5,000 marchers.  Since we have to send in an rsvp of the number who will be going – please send an e-mail to Jose Calderon at Jose _Calderon@pitzer.eduthat you are committed to go.  We will meet at 7 am on Monday, March 31 at the Pitzer parking lot.  We will take names also at our meeting this Friday and make transportation plans).

Once again our meeting on Friday will be a person-to-person meeting but the zoom link option is being made available for those out of the area.  

At the last meeting, we agreed to meet this Friday because we will not meet on Friday, March 28 (due to the Cesar Chavez breakfast that day).  At this meeting, in addition to committee reports, we will have proposed designs for the t-shirt and make a decision on which one to use; go over the press release to send out, take names for flyers to the churches and schools, and take names of those who will be going to the UFW Immigrant rights march in Delano on March 31.   Attached is an agenda, minutes from the last meeting, and a revised program with assignments from our last meeting.

Next meeting of Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage Committee on Fri., March 14 at 3:30 pm

The next Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage March and Fiesta meeting is this Friday, March 14  at 3:30 PM at the Pomona Pride Center (235 W. Mission Blvd).  This again will be a person-to-person meeting but the zoom link option is being made available for those out of the area.  

At the last meeting, we agreed to meet this Friday and next Friday because we will not meet on Friday, March 28 (due to the Cesar Chavez breakfast that day).  We have some good news:  we have gotten some funding from Campus Life for the entertainment (not as much as before but enough to cover some of the primary expenses); also, Los Jornaleros del Norte have finalized that they will participate in our march and share their songs and music at the beginning, during the march, and at the end when we arrive at Tony Cerda Park.  At our meeting this Friday, we will finalize plans for dates to pass out flyers at the churches and schools; discuss new forms of using social media to begin publicizing the march;  finalize the speakers and entertainment; and get reports on the status of the scholarship outreach, the vendors, artists for the t-shirt design, and fundraising.  Attached is an agenda for the next meeting and a revised program with assignments from our last meeting.

Next Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage March meeting – Friday, Feb. 21 at 3:30 PM

This is your invite to the next Dolores Huerta and Cesar Chavez Pilgrimage March meeting this Friday, February 21 at 3:30 PM at the Pomona Pride Center (235 W. Mission Blvd).  This again will be a person-to-person meeting but the zoom link option is being made available for those out of the area.  The zoom link this time, provided by the Jesus Jacuinde from the pride center is: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81008505320?pwd=xTPbvNmZKP3GW0NbjjxEPvQHMFZTvu.1
In our last meeting, we made a major decision to change the date back to Saturday, April 26 for the march – when a proposal was made, with the suggestion of the Ohlone, that we end the march at Tony Cerda park and make our speakers and entertainment part of the annual Pow Wow that is sponsored by the Ohlone.  In the spirit of bringing together as many of our diverse groups in this difficult period of time, we are excited to make this happen.  At our meeting, on Friday, we will further make important decisions on the route, the speakers, the entertainment, the publicity/outreach, the scholarships, and the plan for how we will collaborate with the Ohlone on the program once we enter the circle of the Pow Wow.  Attached are the minutes from the last meeting, an agenda, and the proposed program up to this point.  We have been running our meetings as a whole group and, since the meetings are hybrid with involvement from individuals outside of the area, we have expected the committees to meet in-between the bi-weekly meetings – and that our meetings be made up of reports and decisions together. To facilitate the hybrid character of this meeting, we thank the Jesus Jacuinde for providing the zoom link from the Pride Center – making it easier for those outside the area to join in and participate.
