2011 Earth First! Round River Rendezvous

The 2011 Earth First! Round River Rendezvous:
***

*July 5-12, Lolo National Forest, Montana*

*For more information and directions, visit www.wildrockiesrondy.org*

This July, join environmental justice advocates and impacted community
members from around the country for the 2011 Earth First Round River
Rendezvous, a week of education and action focused around issues of resource
extraction and environmental injustice in the Intermountain West.

This year’s Rendezvous is taking place about an hour from Missoula, MT in
the Lolo National Forest. The site is located just a few miles off of
Highway 12, and much of the workshops and discussions will address the Exxon
heavy haul project.

Northern Rockies Rising Tide would like to invite our allies and other
interested parties to attend part or all of this week-long event. With
hundreds of experienced organizers and activists from around the country
engaging in workshops, discussion forums, trainings, and bold citizen
action, this year’s Round River Rendezvous promises to be an important and
valuable element in the growing movement for a just transition away from
carbon-intensive, toxic, and unsustainable forms of “doing business.”
