Activists Gear Up for Caravan to Cuba
Santa Cruz Caravanistas On A Human Rights Mission To Cuba

Over the weekend of June 24th and 25th, about a dozen Santa Cruz activists
busied themselves at the Live Oak Grange sorting medical suppilies, soaps,
books, pens, and automotive parts among other items, as part of the
Pastors for Peace 2006 Cuba Friend-Shipment Caravan. This is the 17th year
our fellow community members have challenged the travel ban to Cuba as
well as the inhumane embargo on Cuba by our government. Volunteers did a
quality inspection of donated supplies before loading them onto the
dontated ambulance, Police SWAT wagon, and Peace Mobile. Other people put
their handprints onto the vehicles to demonstrate peace, friendship and
solidarity from across the sea.
