ROAR! Restore Our American Republic! Tax Day Tea Party Rally

Our second annual Tea Party Rally will be held at Ah Nab Awen Park in Grand Rapids from 5pm - 6:30 pm. We will have our Soapbox before and after, where people will be given 1 1/2 minutes each to vent their frustrations or present information.

Jim Chiodo will be our Master of Ceremonies. Mari Castegnaro will sing four songs (including the National Anthem), and Pastor Vince Follet will give the prayer.

Speakers include:
Don Jakel -- "Candidate Vetting by Independence Caucus"
C J Galdes -- "Can You(th) Make a Difference?"
Chris Kaijala -- “The Second Amendment is a Self-evident and Unalienable Right”
Judith Doctor -- "The Palin Effect: Why Sarah Scares the Left"
Michigan Supreme Court Justice Robert P. Young, Jr. - "Fighting to Preserve the Rule of Law in Michigan".
Fred Bertch -- "From Anger to Activism: The Way Forward"

We will collect monetary donations to send care packages to our troops, plus names and addresses.

Tea party related merchandise and food will be sold.

After the rally, please join Bill Cooper, 2nd District Congressional Candidate, at New Holland Brewing to celebrate the end of Tax Day. Express your concerns about the government, share your IRS horror stories, and talk with other independent thinkers about your ideas for reform.

The Cooper Campaign will be raffling off a host of prizes, including an autographed copy of Sean Hannity's latest book.

Wear your Tea Party shirt or a Cooper for Congress sticker for $1 off drinks, and let's end a terrible day by hanging out with people who don't believe taxing and spending is the solution to government's problems.

HI:

I tweaked the flier a little bit (hope you dont mind) to add some color for those of us printing it in color. I am going to start posting and spreading around - a lot.

I stored my version on "my page" under the Box.NET application. Click my apps, and all the flyers I did are there for anyone that wants one.

Put fliers on public bulletin boards in stores that have them. Put 3 or 4 under one pin.

You can get some car window paint and paint your vehicle, like Margaret does. She has it listed as an event.

you can put fliers on windshields if they are on public property. I just look for "positive" bumper stickers - flags, military, religious, support our troops, McCain-Palin, etc. I put a flier on the windshield of those cars only. I look at it as leaving a message for a friend.

Going to events like parades -they are on public property-and handing out fliers we do a lot of. Also things like the gun show and town expos.

My list for asking if you can put fliers in their establishment includes:
Right to Life
VFW Halls
Motorcycle shops
Gun shops
Sports Shops
Army/Navy Surplus Stores
small, family owned businesses
anyplace else you can think of

Again, you have to go in and ask if they would like to have some fliers

Timothy Burns shared this with me. It's a free down loadable poster.

Putting things inside mailboxes is illegal. So is attaching signs or flyers to utility poles. I don't know about the windshield wipers, though.

Hi:

Wow! Great! At 500 copies each run at Staples, sounds like you have the printing plenty done. I've sent you my email anyway to get a copy of the file.

Is there something we can do to advertise the Tax Day Tea Party Rally to increase attendence (beyond sending Emails to our address books)? How are we sending the flyers out?

Is windshield stuffing legal - you know the flyers you get under your windshield in a parking lot?

Do we stuff our neighborhood mailboxes? Staple on Utility Poles?
(Need to think this through - If we make a mis-step we'll certainly be "called" on it)

I am thinking - How do we increase the attendance beyond our group, so we're not preaching to only the choir.
