From
the Desk of Michael Day:
President Bush is coming to West Virginia TUESDAY
AUG. 17TH--and we'd like to give him a big ole
Democratic welcome.
He
will be at Hedgesville High School, in Hedgesville,
WV and we will be right across the street at the
L. Howard Dillon Farm Museum. The museum sits
atop a hill overlooking the school, and has a
lovely grassy slope down to the road. To get there
follow the directions and the map I have posted
on this website:http://potomacalliance.4kerry.com/?q=node/view/169.
There are rumors that at some point during the
day, police will close down Route 9, so I have
provided an alternate set of directions also.
Busses of Bush supporters will be arriving between
2:00 and 5:00, so we want to get there around
1:30. Bush himself is not expected until 6:15.
This really will be a long wave goodbye, so bring
chairs, water, food and whatever else you will
need. There are two portapots located at the ball
field next door.
We
will have a number of rally signs and handmade
signs for you to use, but if you have your own
already, please bring it. The Charleston Gazette
wll be sending a photographer to cover the Long
Wave Goodbye, so look nice, wave your signs, and
bring a lot of your friends. See you there!

field next door.
A
number of rally signs and handmade signs will
be available for you to use, but if you have your
own already, please bring it. The Charleston Gazette

****If
you are not familiar with the area, please print and
take a map with you. Take Interstate 81 to Exit 16W,
Route 9. Drive 2.7 miles to Ridge Road and turn left
to "the wave".
There
are rumors that at some point during the day, police
will close down Route 9. If Route 9 is closed, drive
South on I-81 and take the next exit, Exit 14. This
is a new exit and does not show up on the map. Turn
right onto Dry Run Road and drive 1.7 miles. Turn right
onto Ridge Road, and drive 3.2 miles to the wave.
Carpool if at all possible! Parking spaces will be at
a premium. Only about to 50
cars are expected to park at the museum before the use
of an overflow parking 0.5 mile away will take over.
It
is recommended that event go'ers fill their car with
Kerry supporters before you coming.
