The local media estimated a crowd of 500-800, but that was just the peak. People were going in and out continuously. The organizers had a voluntary sign up sheet, and they counted over 1,500 signatures. When you consider lots of people didn’t sign the sheets, we possibly had as many as 2,000 participate.
If you are looking for photos that were posted on FR and have trouble finding them through the FR site you might try this site....it does a great job of finding posts
