Children have virtually no risk of dying from COVID (in my son’s age range he literally has a greater chance of being struck by lightning!). Masks and distancing is damaging to children’s emotional health. All adults can take the CV “vaccine” and wear masks if they want to. There is no reason to make children suffer for the sake of the adults fear. Freedom of choice, masks and vax should be OPTIONAL at all ages.
This comes to us from a local WAPF parent. I’m including it here as a service to our community. Please share.
Hello Everyone,Thank you for your interest in our grassroots gathering to help encourage our local school districts to unmask kids this fall! Extra thanks to those who attended our first meeting on Monday. Since then, Rick Dancer has reached out for a podcast appearance which we will be doing later this month (thank you Derek!). Also, West Linn/Wilsonville, a school district near Portland, voted unanimously to drop mask mandates for the fall and some other districts are implementing similar policies. Now for our districts! If you haven’t already, make your voice heard this week! Here are some of our area’s board members to contact. Time is of the essence.

It’s important that we have a kind, consistent, simple message and that they hear from as many of us as possible, as often as possible. Call, email, and/or send a letter and ask them to “unmask our children” or “make masks optional”. Remember to have your children communicate with the school board too. As well as everyone in your life who cares!
Be sure to add the school board meeting dates (above) to your calendar. We want to show up in full force!
Our next family friendly meeting is this Monday, July 19th, at 5:00 PM at Emerald Park (1400 Lake Dr, Eugene, OR 97404). Bring a chair or blanket in case we don’t get one of the structures.
We had around 25 community members show up at our first meeting and we hope to double our numbers this Monday. Let your friends and family know! Feel free to forward this email to any community member willing to speak up on behalf of our children. Help us spread the word and grow our movement! If you are in another area and want to work with us, reach out!
Thank you!!

Thank you SO much for this! How can I help and become a part of this team?? I am on leave from work and I’m
Committed to fighting for our youth who have no voice right now! I had just been thinking about how to start a community group to stop the mask and vaccine mandates. Please let me know how I can be more involved and spread this message!
