event notice
 Friday January 16, 2009 20:53 by ARAN - Animal Rights Action Network arancampaigns at eircom dot net
 Mark Your Diaries, Now! This year Animal Rights Action Network (ARAN) and Irish Council Against Bloodsports (ICABS) are teaming up to organize a gathering of animal rights campaigners and anti-blood-sport supporters to protest the Hare-Coursing Finals at Powerstown Park in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary. This, like all campaign events by ARAN and ICABS, will be peaceful and well organized. During the last day of the Finals we are expecting Ireland's national media to descend on Powerstown Park to cover our peaceful event. Wherever you live in Ireland or whatever you are planning to do on February 4, 2009 -- we ask that you please make plans to set aside just this one day to attend this vital demonstration.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Hopefully there will be a good turnout for the peaceful protest outside Powerstown Park, Clonmel, which will, as always, be supported by most animal rights/welfare groups, including the Campaign for the Abolition of Cruel Sports, and Bernadette Wright's dynamic Association of Hunt Saboteurs. The anti- hare coursing campaign has been ongoing for more than three decades, a long struggle but one that some day will reach its goal of an Ireland free of this barbarism.
Are the groups planning a protest on every day of the event? What dates is the event on?
Hey John! Thanks for the support -- we've got a great response to this appeal from people right across the country. Damn this awful bad weather.
One day we won't have to organize these demos to spotlight the barbarism and cruelty of bloodsports in Ireland. Together we'll make a big difference and end bloodsports and more in Ireland.
