Yes, Fulton's Folly IS happening this summer, and the game plan right now i=
s this:=0A=
=0A=
 I'm going to come up with a friend or two the afternoon of July 3rd. I'll =
probably come into Boston South Station between 4 and 6PM that day, then go=
 to the APO office and collect the supplies. I'd like to get some sort of v=
anguard out on the Esplanade between 10-11PM so as to get a really good spo=
t.  I'm planning on spending that night out there with at least two friends=
 from NY (and hopefully some APO people as well) staying awake in shifts th=
rough the night, and then people will be free to join us throughout the mor=
ning and the afternoon as they see fit. =0A=
=0A=
I'd like to have one or two people go through the APO office and make sure =
all of the stuff we plan to bring is accounted for (the APO banner, the ten=
t, some tarps, a first aid kit, sunscreen, bugspray, and a case of bottled =
water), although according to weather.com we're looking at a high just unde=
r eighty degrees, isolated thunderstorms, and a 30% chance of rain (so the =
sunscreen may not be necessary and we might want to look at umbrellas inste=
ad). I'd also like to have another couple of people meet us at the office t=
o help us haul everything out to the Esplanade. During the day we're going =
to need people to hold down the fort when I'm not around, and make a deli/m=
unchies run or two over the course of the late morning and afternoon so tha=
t we can provide food.=0A=
=0A=
I have a chmrr up at https://apo.chmrr.net/fultons_folly for people who are=
 interested in lending a hand; the signup for Tuesday the 3rd is for people=
 who want to help with checking on the stuff and setting up our initial pre=
sence on the river, while the signup for Wednesday the 4th is for people wh=
o want to hold down the fort and run errands as necessary. You're welcome t=
o help if you'd like, and you're welcome to come and have fun no matter wha=
t!=0A=
