Past Events:
April 2nd
Spaghetti Supper
The I-70 Tea Party's
fundraiser on April 2nd, coined
“Dinner and a Movie” was well attended. Over a
hundred people met at the Byers American
Legion Hall that evening and enjoyed the
homemade spaghetti dinner with all the
trimmings. The varied homemade desserts brought
in by attendees also got “two thumbs up” from
the crowd.
In addition to the feast
served, there was food for thought. The
hard-hitting documentary entitled, “Agenda” was
shown after the dinner. It reveals American
history not taught in schools. Through
interviews and documents uncovered through the
Freedom of Information Act, the movie outlines
how Americans have been caught up in emotional
causes which are not quite what they seem and
which serve other masters.
It was an evening of
education about our country at a time when more
people are interested in our politics than ever
before.
The I-70 Tea Party is getting requests to
show this documentary in the I-70 Corridor again
and are making plans for more showings. People
realize that our country, like our families,
cannot just keep spending more and hope that our
incomes will increase by magic. Many feel that
for the first time in living history, government
overspending is endangering future generations
which is why the Tea Party message resonates
with more and more Americans. Those interested
in learning more about or becoming involved in
the I-70 Tea Party are invited to call Connie
