DESCRIPTION:Dear Fellow Human Banner Participant,\n\nTHANK you for registering for 
 Saturday's event! You may not be fully aware yet, but every single one of 
 you/us makes a huge difference, and it is never so apparent as when you see 
 the photos!\n\nAll event details are viewable at the "Event Details" link 
 at www.HumanBannerSF.com. When you arrive, please take a flyer from one of 
 the volunteers you will see.\n\nAnd please note these few additional items 
 below:\n\nTARP / BLANKET\n\nThis is a small, last-minute, paranoid request, 
 and (for you veterans) has not been part of any of our past events: If you 
 can, please bring a tarp or blanket or something to lie on for every member 
 of your party. Ideally, these would be at least six feet tall and three 
 feet wide -- bright colors show up best. Tan (sand-colored) is the worst. 
 We're hoping for and expecting a crowd in the 700-800 range or higher, but 
 if we get something closer to the current number of registrants (499 right 
 now), we're going to do a bold outline of each letter and leave a 
 sand-colored stripe in its middle. If that's the case, we'll be positioning 
 each person rather exactly to achieve maximum "crispness." Our blankets and 
 tarps will come in very handy in marking out the borders of the lettering. 
 If we get a big crowd, this request won't make any 
 difference.\n\nVOLUNTEERS?\n\nI could use a few more people to show up 
 early in the morning to help etch the lettering in the sand. We'll be 
 starting at 7am. If you can come at that hour, please email me. Also, I'll 
 need volunteers later in the morning, starting about 10, to serve as 
 "letter captains" (some of you have done this in the past) and for a 
 variety of other tasks, too. So, if you can, please.\n\nBULLHORN?\n\nI've 
 got a small bullhorn. Anyone have a bigger one they can bring?\n\nINVITE 
 ANYONE YOU FEEL APPROPRIATE\n\nThe more the merrier--and the more 
 impressive the photos.\n\nAnd the basic details:\n\nSaturday. Human banner: 
 TAX THE 1% -- Ocean Beach, San Francisco. Please arrive in the vicinity by 
 10:45am. Pick a spot in the lettering by 11:15. HELICOPTER OVERHEAD at noon 
 sharp. Should all be over by 12:30. Complete details and PLEASE REGISTER at 
 HumanBannerSF.com. Please share this invite freely. Also: Facebook event

 soon.\n\nBrad Newsham (for Andrew, John, and the entire Other 98% 
 team)\n\nnewsham@mac.com\n\n415-305-8294\n\n

SUMMARY:"Tax the Rich" Human Banner at Ocean Beach
LOCATION:Event site is 200 yards north of Fulton/Great Highway, halfway between the 
 Cliff House and the Beach Chalet restaurant (public bathroom in the Beach 
 Chalet’s public lobby). A concrete sea wall runs along the beach, with 
 short, numbered stairways leading down to the sand. Event takes place 
 between Stairways 5 and 10.\n\nTRANSPORTATION:\n\n– PUBLIC — San 
 Francisco’s MUNI system serves Ocean Beach very well. Fares, routes, and 
 schedules at www.sfmuni.com. The #5, #18, and #31 buses all stop within 
 five minutes walk (level) of the event site. The “N-Judah” streetcar 
 line terminates a fifteen-minutes walk (level) from the site.\n\n– BY CAR 
 — Ocean Beach has a huge parking area. Parking should not be a problem 
 early on a Saturday.
