Berkeley Juneteenth Booth

Hundreds of local residents and dozens of community-based organizations celebrated Juneteenth on Father’s Day this year on a beautiful, breezy day that felt to be one of the loveliest so far this year. A special thank you goes out to League leaders, volunteers, Albany Youth Council and Meyer Sound staff members who turned out to support community outreach and voter registration efforts in recognition of the national holiday.
