The night before the Parade, our congresspeople hosted a reception for us in one of the office buildings. From left to right, are: A man representing Senator Mark Pryor (who IIRC was in some kind of weather delay), AR 4th dist. congressman Mike Ross, and Senator Blanche Lincoln. The hoeurs d'ouerves (has to be spelled wrong in some way) were great.
I wonder how many receptions in DC are jointly sponsored by Lockheed Martin and Wal-Mart. In case you guys didn't know, in addition to other support, Lockheed Martin gave $10,000 for the trip, which was the largest single donation, and about 1/7 of the entire cost.
The entire community supported us, which was really great. Businesses, schools, individuals all gave money, volunteer work, and support for the effort. A lot goes into taking ~150 people to DC for a week.

Even then, I can't believe that it cost $70k to go to DC for the inauguration for a week.
