NO KINGS RALLY 3
FORT COLLINS DEMONSTRATION INFORMATION
CIVIC CENTER PARK
March 28 starting at 10am
About the Rally
​​​
COMMUNITY NOT KINGS!
​
Join us at Civic Center Park on March 28 to show this administration that across Northern Colorado we embrace our community and we reject tyranny.
​
We stop authoritarianism by showing up.
​
In October, over 17,000 people turned out for one of several No Kings Rallies in Northern Colorado. Commit to attending and bringing at least one additional person who has not attended a rally in the past. Let's increase attendance to at least 20,000! ​​
​
Local community organizations will host tables with information on how you can get involved. Rally attendees will have a full hour - starting at 10 am - before the program begins to visit the tables, meet organizers, and discover concrete ways to plug into the Northern Colorado community.
​
Our speakers will feature Reverend Gretchen Haley from the Foothills Unitarian Church who will talk about community organizing and her experience on the front lines of Minnesota.
​
And then - we will march again through the streets of Fort Collins!
Register
​
We will update this page as IndivisibleNOCO works out the rally details. We will post the Mobilize link as soon as it is active. Registering for the event on Mobilize helps us plan for attendance and ensures you receive any event updates.

Messaging
​​
There is so much to protest against right now.
​
When our families are under attack and costs are pushing people to the brink, silence is not an option. We will defend ourselves and our communities against this administration’s unjust and cruel acts of violence. America does not belong to lawless strongmen, greedy billionaires, or those who rule through fear. America belongs to us, the people.
​
We request that your signs reflect the core message of this demonstration - Community not Kings. ​​
Police Presence
​
The Fort Collins Police may have a presence in the area of the demonstration. Their role is to help keep us safe. Please cooperate and follow their instructions.
​
They may use drones to help with security. If you see a drone, don’t panic! They are there for our safety - not for collecting video of the protest.
Poster Making at the Rally
​
Arrive early to the rally and make a poster with IndivisibleNOCO volunteers! We will have tables with poster-making supplies, so join us for some fun and camaraderie starting at 9 am.
PEACEFUL PROTEST
​​
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events.
​
Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
Parking and Transportation
If you are able, we suggest biking or walking to the rally.
If you drive, we suggest parking at one of the public parking garages downtown or parking south of the event and taking public transportation to the park.
Please be aware that the march route goes in front of the Laporte lot, so egress may be difficult once the march begins.
Help Us Fund Our Demonstrations
IndivisibleNOCO is an all-volunteer organization and relies on donations from our community to fund our activities. Some rallies cost over $2,000 after we pay for port-a-potties, radios, safety vests, poster making materials and more. Please consider a donation to help us defray these costs so that we can continue to host community rallies and other events. Thank you!
Tables at the Rally
​
Once we confirm attendance, we will list the tables at the event here, along with a map showing their location so that you can easily find the organizations that are of interest to you.
Food Bank Collections
​
Look for the table where IndivisibleNOCO Volunteers are collecting food donations for the Larimer County Food Bank. Please consider bringing a donation to support our neighbors experiencing food insecurity. The top five requested items are: macaroni and cheese, peanut butter, canned tuna, chicken or salmon, baby wipes and baby diapers (preemie and sizes 5, 6, & 7).
