Stretch Your Paycheck – Front and Center in the 4th of July Parade

Stretch Your Paycheck – Front and Center in the 4th of July Parade

Stretch Your Paycheck showed up at the Lakewood 4th of July Parade last week.  My friend Lane and I marched with the “Corporations are not People” group carrying the Stretch Your Paycheck dollar.  As we walked down the street, we would periodically stretch the dollar and spin around.

One little boy said, “ Yeah!  Money!” Other children held out their bags – thinking that we were going to throw out candy.

It was a hot day, but it was great to march with the high school band, political candidates, the unicycle youth group, baton twirlers, the robotic team from St. Ed’s and other groups.  Our group was in front of the Silver Sneakers group, an adult and senior fitness group who were right behind us.  By the way – I know the song they performed to by heart.

We invited a few people to stretch the paycheck along the parade route, which included the students from St. Ed’s who were in the Robotics group who built a robotic canon that could shoot out t-shirts.

Stretch Your Paycheck at the We are the 99 Percent Event

On November 17th Stretch Your Paycheck was at the We are the 99% Event – Day of Action event in downtown Cleveland.

Across the country – over 20,000 people turned out in towns and cities across the country.  In Cleveland – we started out in Public Square, and then marched together to the Court House.

The new Stretching My Paycheck umbrellas turned out pretty well – they are portable and packable – but make a message when open!
