Day 8 of Longboarding: Two-Rally Tuesday, Salt Lake and North Salt Lake
Ben and Gates playing around at the NSL gathering
Ben met supporters in Liberty Park in Salt Lake City today. Supporters included those in the park who heard about what was going on, blog followers, employees from a local business, and a paramedic who had read about Ben on a Longboarder bulletin board.
Then Ben headed to North Salt Lake where he was greeted by some loyal supporters in his hometown. It was great to see Gates again.
KUTV also came by to do a follow up story. See it here http://www.kutv.com/news/top-stories/stories/vid_1229.shtml
Both rallies today were attended by very supportive individuals. They are much appreciated.
Walkers Gas/Convenience Stores donated gift certificates. Winegars Grocery Store supplied drinks.
