Just like Bearing Witness in Burlington, we will have a shovel brigade to clear out some of the area where we usually stand. Bring a shovel.
We will need to clear some space to stand, so bring your shovels!
Although there have been a few sunny, relatively warm days, there is still little available parking – and our site remains under snow.Only 3 or 4 cars can park on Hanscom Dr. There is no available parking on Old Bedford Rd.We’ll create a shuttle system from Concord Center – Meet at the parking lot by the Concord visitor center (map below) at 1:00. We currently have 4 drivers. People who can provide rides for others can make a few trips and then park on Hanscom Drive.Or have someone drop you off at the rotary and pick you up at 3:00Bring your shovels and we will clear space for us to stand. Wear good boots and gloves!Map of visitor’s center location

De-ICE Hanscom is a coalition organizing peaceful standouts with the goal of eliminating ICE transport flights from Hanscom Field. ICE is using these flights to swiftly move immigrants out of New England in order to hinder effective legal representation.
Coalition groups include Boston Workers Circle, Concord Indivisible, Greater Assabet Indivisible Network (GAIN), Indivisible Acton Area, Jewish Alliance for Law & Social Action (JALSA), Lexington Alarm, and Maynard Indivisible.
Sign up to get information and updates about our weekly standouts. We’ll keep you in the loop if we need to reschedule or cancel for weather or other considerations, and apprise you of our goals and progress.
