DESCRIPTION:On Sunday, October 12, San Francisco will host a Walk for Farm Animals to 
 benefit Farm Sanctuary. This special event will feature guest speaker Gene 
 Baur, Farm Sanctuary president, co-founder, and author of the best-seller, 
 “Farm Sanctuary: Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and 
 Food.”\n\nWalkers will be carrying signs encouraging people to take 
 action to end farm animal abuse by voting YES! on Prop 2. If passed, this 
 ballot initiative would put an end to the intensive confinement of egg 
 laying hens in battery cages, breeding pigs in gestation crates and calves 
 in veal crates. These confinement systems are so small that the animals 
 cannot even turn around and passage of Prop 2 would affect 20 million 
 animals in California. \n\nWalks occur throughout the U.S. and Canada every 
 fall – on or around October 2 – in honor of World Farm Animals Day. 
 Thousands across North America will join in these Walks to help raise funds 
 for and awareness about Farm Sanctuary’s vital rescue, education and 
 advocacy efforts for farm animals. Farm Sanctuary operates the largest 
 rescue and refuge network for farm animals in North 
 America.\n\nPre-registration is $15, and Walk day registration is $20 and 
 begins at 10:30 a.m. Participants can register at 
 www.walkforfarmanimals.org, or by calling local Walk Coordinator Tania 
 Rose.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2008/09/17/18539155.php
