    ERIE MARCH FOR LIFE
    Saturday, January 9, 2016      11 A.M.

      Keynote Speaker: State Senator Michele Brooks, 50th Senate District
      Assisting with the program: Father Brandon Kleckner, Parochial Vicar, St. George Church
      Begins at Perry Square

      Please arrive at Perry Square by 10:45 a.m.
      The March will be followed by a closing program at the new Pavilion in west Perry Square.
      The entire event will conclude by 12:30 p.m.




    The Erie March for Life will mark the 43rd anniversary (January 22) of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, which struck down the abortion laws of all 50 states and allowed unborn children to be killed in the womb for any reason at any time during pregnancy.

    Everyone who is able to walk is strongly encouraged to do so, but those who would have difficulty walking the distance are encouraged to ride in the motorcade that will follow the marchers.

    The March will get underway from Perry Square in downtown Erie at 11 a.m.

    Parade marshals will begin staging the vehicles for the motorcade at 10:30 a.m. The vehicles will line up on the south side of Perry Square along South Park Row.

    Marchers should assemble at the new Pavilion in west Perry Square by 10:45 a.m. Parking will be available in the parking garage on Peach St. between 7th and 8th Sts. and in the lots just east of Perry Square on French St.

    Please remember to dress for winter weather and be sure to wear good, non-slip footwear, just in case you encounter any icy spots during the March.

    At 11:00 a.m., the March will proceed west on W. 6th St., south on Sassafras St., east on W. 10th St., and north on State St. back to Perry Square, where there will be a brief Pro-Life Rally.
