Creech Air Force Base, Indian Springs, Nevada
CodePink and Veterans for Peace will co-sponsor the annual fall Shut Down Creech National Mobilization to Peacefully Stop U.S. Drone Wars, from Sunday, September 27 through Saturday, October 3 outside Creech Air Force Base, northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. Participants are asked to read more information and complete the registration form at shutdowncreech.blogspot.com. Twice-daily 2-hour peace vigils at the gate will include visual tableaus and other nonviolent direct actions as planned by participants.
Due to the pandemic, the Shut Down Creech Team are taking extra precautions to protect fellow peacemakers and keep everyone COVID-safe. Participants are asked to travel there without using public transportation (bus or plane), and to arrange their own transportation between Camp Justice (on the grounds of the Temple of Goddess Spirituality in nearby Cactus Springs) and the base. Also to practice social distancing and otherwise wear face masks within 8’ of other participants. Plan to tent camp or sleep in your vehicle at Camp Justice. The guesthouse will be unavailable except to the select kitchen crew preparing group meals. Bring your own camping equipment, plate, bowl, utensils, cup and water bottle and a comfortable lawn or folding chair if you have room. Only outdoor sinks, showers and porta-potties available.
