Be the Voice of Kittacuck – Fish Migration Parade
All are welcome to join in this community parade on Sunday, May 19th, at Slater Mill in Pawtucket, RI. (Rain or shine!)
Led by our partners, the Narragansett Indian Tribe and the Hassanamisco Band of Nipmuc, we are working to create a stronger voice for the Blackstone River, or Kittacuck. This community event will bring diverse partners together to learn about and show their support for the need to create fish passage over the lower four dams in Rhode Island and bring back migratory fish such as the herring.
Parking is available across the street from Old Slater Mill, and there will be signs to direct you.
Tabling space available for community groups and organizations
Schedule of events:
1 PM: Family-friendly activities and tabling by community organizations
2 PM: Drumming, dancing, and speakers
3 PM: Parading herring around Pawtucket (1 mile)
