I will be enjoying the day and festivities in Old Town Monument in the earlier part of the day and then maybe hitting up the TEA Party later in the Springs.

Come out and represent!

P.S.
Look for the large Gadsden flag flying high.

Hey all....Im new to the boards but not new to OC. I was planning on heading to the parade but it looks like Monument has a town ordinance that prohibits the carrying of firearms within the town limits. Although it does look like concealed carry is fine.

That is why preemption is a great thing.
