In addition to being in the company of like-minded people fed up with seeing their tax dollars taken and wasted with reckless abandon, there will be several activities to help ramp up the message being sent to the big-spending politicians and an opportunity to help your fellow man…
-
Don’t forget– Bring some tea to "dump"
-
Food Drive– Bring non-perishables and disposable diapers to be delivered to the New Horizons.

-
Picking a particular politician and sending a specific message.
-
Issuing the rally cry to your fellow citizens.
The winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to a popular area restaurant and will be featured on a GraniteGrok Youtube. Who knows– this could be your big chance (or the king might issue a reward for your arrest)!
It has been said that following the original Tea Party of December 16, 1773, the Masons sang at the Green Dragon:
"Rally, Mohawks, Bring out your axes
And tell King George, we’ll pay no taxes!"
In that vein, here’s ours for April 15th 2009 video competition:
Rally, citizens, bring your rant
Tell the politicians, NO YOU CAN’T!
