8:30 am, participants will meet at the Kitsap Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 4418 Perry Rd, Bremerton, for nonviolence training and action planning.1:30 pm, participants will gather at Ground Zero, 16159 Clear Creek Rd. NW, Poulsbo, to walk or drive together to the vigil at the Bangor gates. Not all participants will be involved in the direct action, but those direct actionists will be grateful for the moral support of many participants on the sidewalk with signs. Last year, there were more 200 participants.
