This past Wednesday, I met up with a group of 10 or so people from Invisible Children in downtown Orlando. Our purpose was to talk to Senator Martinez about how he should support the Child Soldier Prevention Act 2007 and to also ask him to call the State Department and voice his concern that a diplomat should be deployed to Uganda to oversee the juba peace talks. We didn't get to meet with Martinez, but we did talk to a person on his staff (the Orlando Regional Coordinator or something).
This is a pic of some us who went with IC Wednesday (Laura, Blaze, Sara, Me).On Friday, I began my last weekend in Florida by going to the beach with Sara W, Hannah, Matt, Adam, Courtney, Rachel, and Blake (Sara's friend from Oklahoma, the kid who cooked for us at C-stone '06). Courtney's truck got stuck in the sand though =(. In the picture w/ Sara and Matt, you can see where Hannah decided to use her artistic skills and draw a heart in sunscreen on Matt's leg.
