Hands Across America

Yep, I did this. It seemed like the thing to do at the time.
We met at the high school and were bussed  around to where they needed people.
Weird thing.

Hands Across America: May 25, 1986.

I was not particularly community minded in high school, but I do remember participating in things like this. I also participated in a community disaster response drill where I was instructed to act like I was injured along with a bunch of other people at the high school (of course), then we were taken to the hospital to see how emergency response teams would handle such an event. I don't know why, but I was always quick to volunteer for things like that.
