3rd Annual Women's Equality Day Parade and Rally
Saturday, August 23rd, 2008
Sacramento, CA

The California Suffrage Parade Coalition is inviting all women, girls and their supporters to the Third Annual statewide celebration with "A Special Tribute to the League of Women Voters" Commemorating the heroic suffragettes struggle in winning the right to vote, the parade starts at 10 a.m. at Sacramento's Southside Park, 5th and T. Street. The parade's destination is the North steps of the California State Capitol for an 11 a.m. rally with exciting guest speakers, esteemed women officials, info booths and music. Performers scheduled to entertain are award winning singer and song writer Hali Hammer, young singing-sensation Reyna Basila, and the Sound Solution Quartet of the Sweet Adeline Choir.

The non-partisan parade and rally was organized to celebrate the landmark victory of the past and pledge determination to encourage women today to register as voters and to make women voices count in all elections and bring to focus continued challenges of paycheck and other inequalities.

For parade registration and information visit womenequalityparade, or call (916) 435-9760 or (949) 230-1169.

Let's celebrate getting the right to vote. And let's remember to use that right each and every time.
