I just heard about this National Rally. What a great idea! But I'm traveling tomorrow for work. I won't be in Boise late enough or the destination early enough. RRR. Drop me know if you hear about anything else going on in Boise. I'd love the chance to help out.
Thanks, A Smith |

Just in case it wasn't completely obvious (ergo the no date comment below), the rally will be held Saturday, November 15, 2008 beginning at 11:30 am at Boise City Hall - 150 N Capital Blvd.
I'm helping Nadine to organize this event. I doubt it will last more than an hour. We have several really wonderful speakers lined up, including a father-daughter team that will speak to the issues regarding marriage - both gay and straight. They are father and sister to a gay man here in Boise. Common Ground Chorus will be singing the national anthem to get the rally started and it's likely there will be another musical act at the end: a popular lesbian artist in Boise! Get the word out to everyone! This rally is about solidarity... it's about being seen and heard from sea to shining sea! Invite parents, siblings, grandparents, straight, gay, bisexual, green, brown or orange... anyone who wants to support marriage equality. |

Hi! Thank you for organizing this. I will be in a class until 1 PM. I was wondering how long this might go so that I can hopefully stop by after class. And hopefully, I'll be able to bring a few classmates with me as well. :)
