What are you going to do to celebrate?
Really, I want to ask advice on my own plans (if you could even call it a plan). I literally JUST found out like an hour ago about October being Vegetarian month and October 1 being World Veg Day. I really want to do something in my community or college, but I fear it may be too late
Specifically, I would like to have like a potluck picnic kind of thing. Like book a park and have people bring veg*n dishes and just have a good time. And I could provide educational leaflets too maybe. And I could put flyers or posters up places, or hand out leaflets at my college or something.
I just have absolutely no idea how to go about getting that kind of thing set up at all. I'm also a minor (17, I turn 18 later in October) so I don't know if that would affect anything (though my parents would probably help me out with anything that being a minor would be a problem for).
Like, where the hell do i start?! Lol! There's no veg groups or clubs or anything around here, so I'm really kind of alone in this right now. I don't even know any other vegs. Who do I talk to about arranging something in the community?
I realize it's probably way too late to arrange something for October 1, so I'll probably just try to make my family eat vegan for the day (or month haha, they'll hate me). But for further reference, does anybody know what to do? It was easy arranging something in high school, I just had to talk to the principle. Now I'm lost. Thanks for your help!!
