C'mon, Lend a Hand
You can take a stand against off shore oil drilling Saturday June 26, 2010 if you live near Vanderbilt Beach.
The National Hands Across the Sand movement started on February 13, 2010 with a chain of 10,000 people on nearly 100 beaches along Florida’s coastline joining hands in an effort to raise awareness of renewable energy and eschew oil.
The event is sure to be broadcast by local news channels that are part of DISH Network basic programming as Collier County residents form a line on the beach by holding hands beginning at noon. All ages are welcome to join.
The movement’s founder, Dave Rauschkolb, said “The message is simple. The images are powerful. We are drawing a line in the sand against offshore oil drilling along America’s beaches and in solidarity events across this great land.”
