Welcome to the First Coast Tea Party
THANK YOUs and Upcoming Events
Yesterday we held the Rally to the Right and many people were involved in making it happen.
Our volunteers - Thanks to Leanne King for staying the course and leading the volunteers through a misty afternoon. She is a real trooper for always smiling when the sun isn't. We are blessed to have Leanne as our Volunteer Coordinator and hope you will join her Patriot Army and get involved in all our events.
Carole McManus who is always quietly setting things up and making sure it all comes together. She is the quiet soul of the First Coast Tea Party and diligently pushes forward to help anyone who needs help.
All Community Leaders - A special thank you to those who promoted the event, showed up to help and encouraged people to join their groups so we can 'occupy' all the neighborhoods in North Florida.
Murray Goff - For his set up of the sound and staging. He lent us his sound equipment, his expertise and his voice to the movement. He has been a strong voice for FCTP since day one and we are blessed to have him.
Debbie Lee and the Tea are the World Musicians - thank you for 'singing in the rain' and filling the attendees with soul music. Thank you also to Let Freedom Sing who is always willing to lead us in our favorite songs.
Speakers - To those who traveled far and those who came across by car. All of you were amazing story tellers and your experiences are now ours. We love that you love America and are willing to stand behind a podium and tell it like it is. (For those who wish to purchase speaker books - contact our office at 904-683-3945 and we will help make that happen.)
Poll Project Team - Your passion about ensuring North Florida polling places does not have Fraud in them is heart-warming. It is good to know that you have seen the truth and are willing to work hard to ensure True the Vote in North Florida. You have set the stage and now we need to sign up and our part. For those of you who still wish to sign up as a volunteer in the Poll Project, please contact our office at 904-683-3945 and do it now. WE NEED YOU
Sweet Treats - Thank you to those who brought sweets to the table. My favorite showed up - peanut butter with a chocolate kiss in the center! Yummy!
Zamar Owner - Andy -- thank you for letting us use your property for our event. It is nice to have a place where we can cuddle up in our blankets with fellow patriots and watch the large flag flying in the breeze. Thank you too to Tools for Time who donated the flag for the event.
Donors - We had some hand us checks last night and we are so thankful for your donation. Hugs were given in return!. If you did not get a hug and want to donate - let us know and we'll be glad to meet up with you, pick up a check and give a hug in return. Due to the rain, we had a smaller showing than anticipated but our expenses were just the same as if the larger group had been there. Please consider sending a check made payable to First Coast Tea Party, 11437 Central Parkway, Suite 107, Jacksonville, FL 32216 or donate online at www.firstcoastteaparty.org.

I really enjoyed this event, however I come to see my friends, so many have been kind to me, and I hope I been able to contibute to the cause, I finaly got my wife Shirley to come to some of these events. I know she has met so many great people and is enjoying these events also.
We stayed all day until the rain got the best of us, she was a real tropper though even while she is battleing Breast Cancer.
I wish I could be more active but with the Doctore appointments and my job, I do not have as much time as before.
As things improve, look for me at as many functions as I can make.
Love to All of my FCTP friends,
Tom Wright

Thanks to the Patriot Guard and Michael Jackson - I told you guys I would miss someone and I did. I am so sorry and it was no indication of anything other than a mind that was filled with too much stuff.
We appreciate everyone and Pam, too, who cooked wings of which I didn't get not a one! I wish I had. Please forgive me.

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??
If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets. It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
