Let freedom ring! Celebrate Independence Day with other freedom-loving, limited-government activists at a Tea Party near you.
In the Birmingham area:
(Note, I read in the Birmingham News that's "doors" will open at 4:30PM)
Montgomery, from my friend Don:
The Montgomery Tea Party Patriots will host a 4th of July rally and celebration
Saturday, July 4th at Overlook Park between the Alabama River and Bell
Street in downtown Montgomery, Alabama between 5:30 and 6:30 PM. This
celebration of our nation's independence is open to everyone who loves
America.
On the schedule:
WWII airplane formation fly-over
honor/color guard
patriotic music by sound man and disk jockey “Dr. Sam”
Speakers (all topics related to the U.S. Constitution) include:
talk show host and emcee Greg Budell
talk show host Kevin Elkins
Dr. Bart Cook-nationalized medicine
George Sullivan a WWII, Korea and Vietnam veteran
Becky Gerritson-cap and trade speaker
Tom Mullens-author of "Common Sense Revisited, Awakening the Spirit of Liberty in the Inhabitants of America"
Bring your chairs, WATER, flags, noisemakers, signs, family,
friends, and enthusiasm for our country. We will celebrate and educate
on how dear liberty is to our country. Let us raise our voices in
peaceful assembly to let our "leaders" know this is the country of "WE
THE PEOPLE" as we honor the sacrifices of Americans from the beginning
of our republic. We will present current legislation that is damaging
to our freedom and contact information for your elected officials.
There will be celebrations going on at the River Walk Amphitheater.
The Biscuits have a baseball game. The Alleyway is open and will have
dining and entertainment. The Brewpub is a staple of fine dining.
Linger at Overlook Park to view the fireworks display or take part in
the other activities downtown. Plan to spend the night at the new
Renaissance Hotel or the Hampton Inn.
There is ample parking close to Overlook Park. American Legion Post
210 has offered its parking lot at 903 Bell Street about 3 blocks away
from the park across I-65. There are parking decks nearby, and parking
on Bell Street will be allowed.
