Editing Organizer Mapping Your March Route (section)

== Making Your Protest Easy To Find ==
Have you ever been with a group moving around and had to use the restroom in the middle and had a hard time finding your group after? Have you ever been arriving late to a group on the move (like a bar hop) and had a hard time figuring where they were at?

It's not uncommon for people to be late to a protest or for people to hear about your protest and want to come later. It's also not uncommon for people to have to split off your group to use the bathroom or quickly grab food.

While designing your protest route take into consideration the need for it to be visible not just to the general public but those that want to participate but may not know where you are.

We can help those trying to join us with a some simple considerations when planning the route.

* Posting the march route in advance if one is planned
* Keeping the march on the biggest well known streets.
* Having chants so we can be heard from blocks away.
* Keeping our march in as straight of a line as possible

When needing to make a turn in your protest route consider making it a "U turn". Having the march loop around with a path 1 block away will make it easier for people that have to dip out fir a couple minutes to rejoin the march.
