Obama supporters host Family Fun Day in RC
Barack Obama supporters gathered at Memorial Park in Rapid City Sunday for a family fun day in the park. The weather cooperated and supporters were able to enjoy hotdogs, bratwurst, potato salad and much more. Today's family activity was a chance for Obama campaign leaders to inform the community about the Illinois Senator's platforms. Ida Fast Wolf says, "A lot of kids here. It's important in our culture also to have our kids. You know you think they're too young to understand but they're a part of the process; because that's why we're here -- for our future. And I think Senator Barack Obama believes in that also. And that's important to us." Following the cookout, campaign volunteers put on their walking shoes and went door-to-door canvassing for Obama votes.
