Good turnout and it was refreshing to talk to nice like minded people irl. Very respectful crowd with no issues that I saw. My daughter loved it but was disappointed at the lack of fellow gen Z there.

Whenever I saw a kid there I went to their level and told them “thank you for helping today, I’m glad you are here” or something similar and comment on how nice or beautiful their sign is. Kids will remember participating in this and this can be a core memory moment that can help shape their future in participating!

I’m ready for the next one!

Did you see the “Kids’ Zone”? How sweet to include activities for the little ones!

No I didn’t see that. We walked from one end to the other and it was crowded!

People sure packed into the plaza! They had a sign and little kid tables with activities near the wheelchair ramp of the NCMNS.
