NAPA, Calif. – A group of concerned citizens from Napa and surrounding communities are joining groups staging similar events all over the United States, with a planned 24-hour demonstration at Veterans Memorial Park in downtown Napa.

The protest will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 1, and run through 9 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 2.

The group will show support for and solidarity with the “Occupy Wall Street” demonstrators in New York City and elsewhere in the U.S.

In conjunction with this demonstration, Occupy Napa! protesters will target the Wells Fargo Bank branch located on the opposite side of Main Street from the park as the proxy for its parent corporation, Wall Street giant Wells Fargo & Co.
