Rossport Shell to Sea Gathering, 29th May — 1st June

Every­one is invit­ed to the third annu­al June gath­er­ing here at Ross­port.

Fri­day 29th May — Mon­day 1st June.

The cam­paign has been run­ning for years now, and you can find out more on the Ross­port Sol­i­dar­i­ty Camp web­site: http://www.rossportsolidaritycamp.110mb.com/

The gath­er­ing is a great chance to see the area (real­ly real­ly beau­ti­ful), find out what’s real­ly going on, and to meet the peo­ple involved — cam­paign­ers, locals, cats.

Also, music, work­shops, surf­ing, kayak­ing, food (includ­ing sea­weed).

Prepa­ra­tion is going on now, and it feels excit­ing.

Last year, when shell tried to lay the RAW gas pipeline, the peo­ple resist­ed all sum­mer. Even­tu­al­ly, the soli­taire (the biggest pipe lay­ing ship in the world) was forced to fuck off, with its tail between its legs.

This year they will try again, and it is the spe­cial blend of locals, and activists, from near and far, that have kept them away so far.

Come and see what it’s like when all types of peo­ple com­ing togeth­er for a com­mon cause. Shell is so pow­er­ful, please come along and help.

ps. if you can’t make it for the gath­er­ing, you are wel­come any time you like through the sum­mer, even if it’s only for a day or two.

pps. please spread the word; email­ing, tex­ting, talk­ing about ross­port and the gath­er­ing.

Hop­ing to see you here!
