Join us for a Climate Strike event in beautiful downtown Naperville at the Oliver Hoffman Pavilion (320 W Jackson Ave., Naperville, IL 60540) on Friday, Sept. 20th from 3:30-6:00 PM. This is the international day for a climate strike to draw attention to the looming crisis. We will have a few speakers around 4:30 PM. Please share this event with friends who are aware that there is a climate crisis, but have not yet taken any action to do something about it.

Thank you for signing up to attend this important climate action on the international day for a climate strike! We are inviting the media and we hope you can invite more people! Please share this event on social media and by inviting people via e-mail. We won't change the will of our lawmakers until we have hundreds and thousands marching in the street for change!

Bring signs, take time off of work and/or school to send a message that this is an important issue!
