New York State Marches for Peace

Each leg of the walk will have a sag car that stays with the walkers. Those cars will carry supplies and people as needed.

Also each leg of the march(Rochester, Ithaca, Utica) will have rides to and from their originating towns each day, so people can join up with the march on the days they are available.  (Please see below for each city)

Let’s try to car pool as much as possible.

Rochester Transportation:
A shuttle will leave the Anti-War Storefront, 658 Monroe Ave. each day at 9:00 am. (return time TBA) If you are planning on taking a shuttle, please e-mail us with your date(s)at nysmarchesforpeace@yahoo.com

Rochester Against War (RAW) and Peace Action and Education have reserved a bus to take people from Rochester to the Ft. Drum Spring Festival on May 17th. If you are interested in taking this bus, you can sign up at contact@rochesterAgainstWar.org.

Ithaca Transportation: 

If you are joining the March en route: Transportation leaves from 213 First Street each morning starting on Friday, May 9.  Departure times vary each day.  Vehicles will leave promptly at the time indicated in the Marching Route & Lodging Table .  If you are traveling on your own and arrive at the day’s starting location after the designated time scheduled, it should be easy to locate us en route since we are staying on primary roads.

Returning from the March en route:  Transportation leaves from the lodging site each evening.  Time will vary depending on the needs of the walkers returning to Ithaca that day.  If you drove up on your own to the day’s starting point, we will drive you back to your car at the end of the day.

Returning from Watertown on the evening of May 17:  We will be carpooling back to Ithaca that evening.  If you are planning to drive up to Watertown for the festival and are able to take marchers back to Ithaca after the festival, please let us know.

Please arrive 10 minutes early so we can leave on time.
