Report from the front-lines (of caution tape) - pretty nice turn out on a unexpectedly hot day (Wunderground forecast had some concerned about rain - hopefully NOAA is making the investment to update those models to better account for climate change - oh wait...). About the same as April 5th, maybe a bit smaller, which seems to mirror the national turn-out.
Was personally hoping for more musicians and instruments to show up, but mad props to the girl with the bucket drum holding things down - only wish I had brought a fife! Flags were waved (Slava Ukraini!), songs were sung, and thanks to everyone who brought a donation for the Hilo Food Basket as it was a day for community work and support. Onward and upward - movement continues to grow!
