Statewide Gathering Success!

Saturday, August 29 - We had a good turnout at the park Saturday. Along with the Lexington 9/12ers, folks from Greenville, Spartanburg, Summerville, Pelion, Gilbert, the Northeast and Mount Pleasant joined us.

On the local political front, two folks from Nikki Haley's campaign for Governor stopped by as well as candidate for Senate Christina Jeffrey. Christina is running for the 2010 Race for SC 4th Congressional District. She could end up being a very viable candidate for Inglis’ seat. She has a couple websites, I found this one to have a lot of helpful information on it for those folks in her district to read.

Our friend and fellow Lexington 9/12er from ABATE attended and reminded us of the importance that like minded groups continue to meet with each other as it will take all of us, regardless of what group we belong to in order to make effective change.

We enjoyed friendship and food on the grill, great desserts and want to thank everyone who cooked, donated food and supplies. A good time was had by all.

On to D.C.!
