Yes, I think she passed out close to your station and was carried or helped walk inside your tent. I forgot about the Nurse. Think the Dr. arrived shortly after. Anyway, all she needed was rest and your water and she was fine. Thank you again for that and buying some food at the end. Very, very gracious of you and the others. You did your duties in an exemplary manner.
You and all the volunteers should be so proud of your accomplishments that day. To my knowledge, not one volunteer missed a beat.
THE only problem we had is when some kid showed up with a long knife on his side just outside the VIP tent. I was heading up the stairs to the stage when someone threw something at my back to get my attention. Turned around and saw the problem and motioned to security who quickly walked him away with no incident. I also had to 86 a couple guys selling their wares in the middle of the crowd. They left peacefully.
BTW, in case your curious how I/we managed the entire event, certain key people had headsets with mics provided by our security. Guess you Hospitality folks didn't have one. My bad. Geeze, all these memories coming back. Thank you.
Now time to concentrate on the elections.
Oh, my goodness, I completely forgot about the knife guy!
Wish I could remember the name of the nurse. She was from Baltimore I think.
I just loved volunteering that day. And thank you for your help and organizational skills. As I recall, the March was put together very quickly and was a great event!
There are certain events that are completely remembered.....
Graduating from high school, from college, first day first job
Getting married
March for Justice.
I have the poster on my office wall along with several Post it notes collected on Sunday morning in Fort Marcy Park. We were on a Vince Foster tour and I found the notes, also pinned to my office wall, at various locations as we walked along guided by Patrick Knowlton. The signed notes were left by Lurker No More, ByTor, Yankee and One Anomous Lurker who were on the VINCE FOSTER MIDNIGHT HALLOWEEN FIELD TRIP. One note said”Wrong Cannon FREEPERS-——>” another said “MIDNIGHT FREEPER RAID”, They were dated “October 31 at 12:00 AM FREEPERS WERE HERE”
As I reflect today on these notes, I see the word FREEPERS. I was of the opinion that the term was developed by Lucien Goldberg at the March For Justice. The use of the term would indicate it might have already been in use
