June 13th is quite an auspicious day for a World Wide Flash Mob! It is the birthday of great Irish poet W.B. Yeats (pronounced "Yates") AND actress/fashion mogul Mary-Kate Olsen.
Yeats is famous for creating great lines like:
"I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
while I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the heart's deep core."
Olsen is famous for creating great (fashion) lines like The Row, Elizabeth and James, and StyleMint.
Yeats won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature.
Olsen won the WSJ Magazine's Innovator of the Year Award.
Yes, they are like twins, these two, but celebrating the whimsical nature of the World Wide Flash Mob, you must pick your favorite: Yeats OR Mary-Kate.
We will be raffling off a WWFM XII geocoin to some lucky flash mobber at 10:15 sharp.
Event details:
Location: Duarte Park (see coordinates above.) Plenty of grass and some kiddy play structures.
Duration: 10 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.
Schedule:
10:00: Event begins. Feel free to log and swap trackables.
10:10: Flash mob begins. No pre-rehearsed dance moves will be required.

10:20: Group photo.
Bonus prize to the attendee who can make the best argument in favor of Yeats or Mary-Kate.
10:25: Flash mob ends with popular victory for either Yeats or Mary-Kate. The media is then alerted.
10:30: Event ends, and Yeats and Mary-Kate are reinstated as equals in the pantheon of civilization.
Feel free to continue to socialize beyond the event's end, but the host has to get to work.
Please make note of the alternate waypoint in the unlikely but unpredictable event that another group is already using GZ. The alternate is just a few hundred feet northeast at the same park.
