Re: [RC] [RC] Was I'd like y'alls opinions now Catoosa -


Marci,
We were actually there at Catoosa. I was only 9 so my recollection is not all 
that great. I just remember swimming in the horse troughs. I do remember that 
my mother and another central region member stayed just outside of their camp 
the night before and tried to get people leave. The were run off with a 
shotgun, literally. We did do the ride over at Oologah the next day. We 
actually camped in the field behind a motel that one of the AERC members either 
owned or ran (can't remember which). My mother was a lawyer and was helping out 
with the case, and we had several OKC TV stations come out to our house and did 
several interviews showing that we did things very differently that the way 
things were done at Catoosa. I do think it gave "endurance" a black eye but it 
also gave Oklahoma a black eye. It has taken a lot of hard work to try to 
change the image that most people had because of it. We are constantly trying 
to change the way people think and act, that aren't AERC people, and we have 
gotten through to a lot of people.
Katrina
