Charlotte, I think you are absolutely correct in your timing of when to march - BUT now is the time to start getting organized. These things take a lot of organizing and planning ahead. They dont just happen spontaneously even if they seem to! The police have to be prepared, and there are such things as licences and so on. Plans began in January for Awareness Day 2002. So even from now to September barely gives us enough time! hilary blue Charlotte Mancuso wrote: > Hi all, > > I've been wanting to do a wagon circling every year since '98.
