Reflection/Evaluation
We had a great turnout of over 300 people at the rally. We tabled at the park and collected 2 pages of interested potential members. Linda will follow up for membership. Our newest trifold was a big hit and we gave out over 100 Broadsides newsletters. The flotilla was fabulous and quite windy and rough out there. The bands played in the morning and afternoon and we also had over 90 minutes of speakers. I talked with several tribal members and hope to have them at our chapter meeting sometime. We were also able to network and obtain several speakers for our picnic on July 10. Free pizza and sandwiches were given out, too. Laurie also sent out info on how to comment with deadline and comment suggestions.
