We have just received this notification from MJJForum about the location change for the VIGIL OF FAITH:
On Monday, January 24, 2005 - MJJForum secured Ryon Memorial Park in the City of Lompoc to hold a Vigil of Faith for Michael Jackson.
It has become necessary for us to cancel our arrangements for this location because the City of Lompoc Parks & Recreation Service has altered the terms of our original contract due to an anonymous phone they received. This caller provided them with untruths indicating that we were going to have 1,000 fans show up and needed police and extra security.
They immediately determined that the time of the event could be no longer than 2 hours and the police would be there in full force in anti-rally gear to disperse the crowd at the end of the event. Barricades were to keep us to one section of the park and they required a million dollar bond.
With the safety of our members and Michael's fans upper most in our minds, we will be relocating the Vigil of Faith to another less hostile location.
The new location will be announced within 24 hours.
eMJey.com will notify you as soon as the new location is announced.
