9/12 Survival Kit

This just in from www.ResistNet.com. Thought it would be good information to pass along.

Thanks to Melody Kite for putting this together.

9/12 Survival Kit

What every rally goer should have

METAL FLAG POLES AND BANNER HOLDERS ARE FORBIDDEN

Your identification on your body. Carry your money and room card and ID inside your clothes against your skin If you are a woman do not carry a handbag.

A cell phone, and a list the numbers of those your party in case you get separated along with the number of the hotel where you are staying.

A map with the route back to your hotel.

A back pack with sunscreen

2 bottles of water

Some fruit, bananas, or apples

A sandwich

2 energy bars per person

Some nuts (not including your traveling companions!), walnuts, peanuts or almonds

A package of Kleenex (in case you get weepy or for the porta johns)

Packages of moist towelettes

Hand Sanitizer

Small portable am/fm radio

Your digital camera

Extra batteries

A small first aid kit

A collapsible umbrella

A small blanket to sit on

A light rainproof jacket or sweater

What ever medications you may need to take during those 8 hours.

A trash bag to totally police your area at the end of the day remember, this is our property, and we need to leave it as beautiful as we found it.

If you are unable to sit on the ground or stand for long period of time one of those chairs that folds up, which may or may not be a problem as metal poles are not allowed.

Bring your video camera and be prepared at all times to use it in case anyone attempts to start trouble and make us look bad, be ready to record!

Wear comfortable shoes.
Be Prepared!

There will not be any vendors, food, or water for sale on the grounds as it is against Capitol policy. So it is imperative that you bring what you need.

Possible Available Charter Bus

I have just been told that you may be able to charter a bus through Academy Bus Co. in Hoboken, NJ.

9/12 March on Washington

So many have been asking for help regarding the rally. Unfortunately, the buses for our county are full. However, I created this blog so that those interested in making their own arrangements can communicate with others in the same boat.

Hope you can work out the details and meet us in Washington. It will be a historic event.

Here is some Info on the 9/12 Rally.
Saturday morning, Sept. 12, is the big day for the March on Washington. We will be gathering at Freedom Plaza at 9 a.m. and will hear from grassroots leaders from around the country. Folks are encouraged to line up by state, so just look for your state flag and gather with your group the best you can. We will also make announcements from the stage about the order of the states.
