The Tea Party group set up a booth at the Iroquois County Fair July 14th-18th, 2010. Pete and Barb Offill hosted the booth along with Lynn and John Ware, Joann and Ron Kissack, and Doretta Corrie. The weather was very hot and humid all 5 days of the fair. We met many wonderful patriots with the same concerns of the direction our country is going. There were alot of deep conversations, opinions, agreements, and respectfully agreements to disagree. Brochures with the TEA Party mission statement explaining what the TEA Party movement is about was handed out to over 600 people. Majority of the people were receptive. The TEA Party was thanked numerous times for coming out to the fair and people were excited that there is a group in the Iroquois County. Pocket Constitution were also handed out and people really wanted them. They were gone on the second day!!! On the front table we had printouts, brochures, pocket Constitutions, petition to have a "Forensic Audit" of the books of Illinois, sign up for our mailing list, and a donation box. We were complimented quite often on how nice the booth appeared. We had numerous items to raffle off, such as: Patriotic Basket, American Eagle Picture, and Patriotic pillow and candle display. Overall, the Watseka Iroquois County TEA Party group was a success!!! Hope to see you all in August for our monthly meeting and September for our next TEA Party rally. Check back later for updates!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!
