WASHINGTON, Aug. 22, 2006 -- A weekend of events in Sacramento, Calif., saluting Americas military veterans and current servicemembers will culminate in a candlelit walk on the fifth anniversary of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Sacramentos Freedom Walk, planned in conjunction with similar events around the country to remember those who lost their lives on Sept. 11 and to honor America's past and present military veterans, will begin at 9:30 p.m., after a two-and-a-half hour concert and military tribute in the William Land Park and Amphitheater. |

I Sense a Mood Change that the MSM hasn't figured out yet.
What's interesting is that the Freedom Walk is candlelit - that's exactly what the Move America Forward event at the State Capitol will be.
I'm very excited about the lineup of people being put together for the night and think it will be an excellenet event!
Spot on Sacramento! If we have no local events, hope to drive up there to join some fellow patriots.
Because our lamebrain City Council passed a useless and offensive resolution condemning the war in Iraq at the behest of a bunch of out-of-town agitators. Fools.
I'm confused. Went to the link you posted and found nothing about an event at the capitol. The "will be" should get updated to gonna be :-) I hope you're not suggesting the Pentagon's America Supports You partners ripped off your idea somehow. Enjoy both events or just be glad Sacramento lead the pack of the other ten cities hosting Freedom Walks (candle lit, glow sticks or otherwise)
I just thought it was counterproductive for the Sacto Homefront Folks to host a second event. They should have done their walk and joined us as the Capitol.
Phelps Hobart spoke to us when he inquired about a permit at the Capitol and found out we already had one. Our Communications Director, John Ubaldi, had pulled that several months ago. And yep, we pulled it for a night rally to do a candlelight vigil.
Have fun at the Freedom Walks event and say hi to Dave Jenest and Phelps Hobart!
