I Love Mountains Day wrap-up
Filed Under:
Yesterday's I Love Mountains Day rally was a really phenomenal event. We had approximately 850 people who marched and rallied on the steps of the Capitol, a wonderful slate of energizing speakers and musicians, and lot of good media coverage, including a front page article in the Lexington Herald-Leader. Thanks to everyone who came out, our speakers, and those who helped organize the event. We pulled together the video above to show some highlights from the day. Check out our blog next week for more videos from the rally.
