WOW I am really surprised how this news has spread. I am Tim Pugh the founder of the CR Tea Party. Yes the DNR says NO, which I figured. So I did not really plan on it, but we do have other things up our sleeves right now.
we do have a website crteaparty.org
post your support on our message boards!!
I am planning on the National Chicago Tea Dump also, and am hoping to spread to several other areas of Iowa, Tax increases the whole way around is the goal in Iowa.
We would love any support from anyone living in Iowa or close by!!
We are scheduled for Sat Feb 28, at 2:00 on the First Ave Bridge in Downtown Cedar Rapids. Bring buckets marked TEA or GOVERNMENT WASTE or the like, and lets have some fun.
BTW I will post more information later, to better explain.
Sorry to be a disappointment
So people can collect dead leaves from trees that line the river banks - fallen leaves this time of year - and dump THEM in the river, from buckets labeled “tea”. Those kinds of leaves already fell in the river in the fall, anyway.
