Join the Caravan to Ground Zero
Sunday
On this September 11th — which is coming up soon — a rally will be held to protest the proposed Ground Zero mosque, on the corner of Park Place and West Broadway, starting at 3:00 pm.
The speakers at the event will include members of the families of 9/11 victims, John Bolton, Geert Wilders, Andrew Breitbart, Gary Bernsten, Ilario Pantano, Steve Malzberg, Gary Berntsen, Michael Grimm, a candidate for Congress from New York's 13th district and a 9/11 first responder, ACLJ, and more soon to be announced. Learn more about the rally here.
You probably know all this. But another movement leading up to this event has gotten underway. It's a caravan to Ground Zero. A "Stars and Stripes Caravan" will be starting on the West coast and heading across the country, picking up more travelers along the way, and ending at Staten Island. The start times and locations will vary depending on where you're starting from. You can learn more about it and join the Facebook page here: Stars and Stripes Caravan. If you don't use Facebook, go to the caravan's web site for more information.
An addition to the caravan is the Ground Zero Transportation Exchange. Get a ride, give a ride, or find a car pool going to the rally. They just added a car pool discussion to the discussion board, with car pools listed by state. Join the Facebook page here: Ground Zero Transportation Exchange.
Get your plans in order. September 11th is not far away.
Here's a little more information about the rally from Atlas Shrugs:
Hosting the rally are Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer of FDI and SIOA. Before the rally, there will be a brief memorial service honoring the victims.
In addition to the speakers mentioned above, Grammy Award winning producer Steve Dansby, and singer of Rita Jones' song Salt In the Wound will be performing that iconic tune live.
Sister organizations in Europe and Australia will be holding solidarity rallies on September 11th too.
Put on your driving gloves, grab your sunglasses, and join the caravan. It will be a trip to remember!

The organizers have added this: The easiest way to join up with the caravan will be to take off from your state in time to get to the meeting point in Jersey, where we will take the train into the city. Parking is more plentiful and cheaper in Jersey.
We are going to decorate our cars with our state flags and as much patriotic deco as possible. If we stick to the major interstates and all plan on arriving at the same time, then we will naturally meet up.
Or go to Staten Island for the Ferry. Meet up around noon, September 11th. We want people to at least put their state flag on BOTH sides of their car, AND tie big red, white and blue ribbons on the car.
That way we'll recognize each other on the road as we get closer to Jersey.
