The Washington, DC, April 15, 2010 Tea Party Schedule per Freedom Works, co-sponsor with the Tea Party movement, is below.
Link to Freedom Works' actual April 15 agenda is HERE. And their Home page.
9am - 12pm: Liberty Summit at the Ronald Reagan Building and the agenda and map is HERE. Freedom Works would like you to sign up for this event. I suppose there is limited space.
1pm: Freedom Works is encouraging people to lobby their legislators, it appears the topic is your choice.
5:45pm: Pre-show for Rally. See below paragraph for rally info.
7pm - 9:30pm: Rally at NE quadrant of Washington Monument grounds on the south side of Constitution Avenue. Map Here. Freedom Works says "we are planning to have an evening event with speakers, music and lots of rowdy protesters". They have a list of speakers under their Event Schedule and Information tag at their above link.
The DC Chapter of FReeRepublic at this time is not planning anything special. If you want to meet up with other FReepers, [Mrs] T, myself and several others will be attending the evening Rally. We'll be standing as close as possible to the Jefferson Pier Marker just south of Constitution Avenue as shown on the map link. I should have my tall U.S./Gadsden flag. I'm not sure where we'll be once the program actually starts - just depends on the loud speakers (which are usually inadequate) and the stage location.
My guess is that Freedom Works' stage will be close to the Washington Monument so the W.M. can be a back drop for photo ops.
Weather is showing sunny and mid-70s, but could get chilly when the sun starts to set around 8pm.
Be sure to bring your cameras since the "progressives" intend to disrupt the April 15 events where ever they are held. At DC, Freedom Works has permitted the area so have the police remove anyone who is disrupting the event.
Hope to see some of you there.

Hope to see some of the DC Chapter regulars there.
[Mr] T
This is a nice map of the mall

Great, except for Dick. Lone Star Tea Party will have no politicians or candidates at our 30+ group event. We do have ‘Zo, though!
It is a good map. Bookmarked it. Thanks
Yep, understood about Dick and pols in general. But I didn’t see anything under the Tea Party its self. And apparently the Tea Party Express is coordinating with Freedom Works.

My memory served me well this afternoon.
[Mr] T
I’ll be there with my husband & another couple. It’s costing us some vacation time, but it’s worth it. We’re turning it into a 5-day mini-vacation.
Wish I could be there, but the one person who would truly be able to take my place is going to be in Spain at the time.
That really sucks rocks.
PING!
PING!
Please forgive any double-pings.
Are you guys talking about Ricardo Montalban Armey Amnesty Guy?
I’m there!
That we are.
[Mr] T
Yep.
Unfortunately, I’m in So. Calif. next week for work or I’d be there.
take my place at work, that is...
Maybe they should put DICK Armey’s face on one of those Gringo de Mexico currency bills, like George W. Bush, Hillary Clinton, and John McCain.
Look at it as investing some vacation time. The dividends will come in the future.
