Well, here’s your chance! This just came in from the California Democratic Party… I guess the entire state is excited about this! We’ve got more details below.
You may have heard that Barack Obama will be visiting Orange County this Saturday to participate in a community forum with John McCain at the Saddleback Church in Lake Forest. What you may not have heard is that California Democrats will be turning out in large numbers to greet him. If you’d like to be part of the crowd cheering Barack Obama on, please grab your Obama gear and come join us!
What: Obama Rally at the Saddleback Church
Where: Volunteers gather at the parking lot near LA Sports Fitness:
29400 Portola Parkway
Lake Forest, Ca 92630
When: Saturday, August 16th at 4:00 p.m.
Directions: From North, take 133 North from the 5 or 405 South. Then from the 133 North, take the 241 South. Exit the 241 at Portola Pkwy. (at Foothill Ranch, NOT Irvine), and turn right. The church will be on the left side.
From South, take the 5 North. From the 5, exit Alicia Pkwy. Turn right on Alicia (into Mission Viejo). From Alicia, turn left on Marguerite Pkwy. Continue to the end of the road to El Toro Road, then proceed straight into Saddleback Church.
There will also be McCain supporters in attendance, so it’s important that we counter them with a strong showing of support for Barack Obama and his positive message for hope and change in America!
Actually, all groups (including us Obama folks) are going to meet earlier, at 3pm, same place. The Register reports that OCSD is expecting up to 1500 demonstrators from 15 different groups/causes/political views (and who said the OC wasn’t diverse!)
There are 190 Obama supporters that have signed up under the Find Events section of his website as of 7pm Friday. Believe me, this will be where the fun is!
See You There!
