Getting a permit on the Mall is not a problem. I have done it many times and I am willing to get it again.

Some things to think about:
a. 4th of July weekends may already be booked up. But with the 4th being in the middle of the week we have 2 weekends to check into.
b. One jiffy john per 50 people is required at about $200 per jiffy john
c. Any stages, etc that are going to be on the grass will need to have a matted access route for vehicles to drive on. Then they have to be self standing - NO driving pegs into the grass
d. A minimum of several months of planning and organizing is needed to get sufficient numbers to attend. People have to plan.
e. We need some BIG names early on to help draw people
f. We will need to hire medical teams for the event. I am not sure how many are need per ?? people.
g. Donations, and from deep pockets, are severely needed.
h. Advertising and lots of it is a must.

Hope this helps.

As mentioned, to have something around the 4th, we need to start planning NOW. Other than basil, I do not see anyone offering to help.
