smart car rally - Great Photo Op for Obama (Community Service)
I'm from Lincoln City, OR, and participating in a large smart car rally, including a Lombard Street Crawl, driving my smart cabriolet with smart Obama bumper stickers artfully worn. My idea is to incorporate the bigger picture; I'll quote my post on the SCOA smartcar forum: "What a statement we prepare to make. Since February 29th, I have been an avid ambassador, showing and telling, waving back, reveling in the smiles, mile after mile. This Happening, this advent of change, in the Crown Jewel of California, can spread the joy and funmanship of smart far and wide...we need some Press. Spreading the word that Proof positive, Art and Function are alive and well for Everyone, and sometimes smaller is actually better. Affordable art that's an absolute blast to drive, gets great mileage, and is astoundingly green. "And, the message is so much more than the smart - it's also the whole attutude of new, forward, green, fun; the myriad possibilities of innovation as we venture into a hopeful future. Our little smarties are truly magnets, inviting the curious, leaving them with kind impressions of small spaces that are fun to drive. "I always ask the doubters how often they drive alone. I hear, "Good point," alot. Suze, you were right on: Press Coverage. We're making History August 17, 2008. I wonder if Roger Penzky (sp?) wouldn't like to know about this rally... Does everyone agree that we have a supreme opportunity here to expand the celebration?" This may be best for press or videographers, or low-carbon/emissions promoters, as this is not a political event, but I do drive the Obamamobile. And free speech is free speech. I see this as a freebie opportunity to show America that lots of people are into change, and that Art and Function are alive and well. We're enthusiastic and hungry for a brighter future...
