Great Use of Glowsticks

We just got back from our lovely July 4th celebration.  They had fireworks.  There were a lot of tarps and blankets.  There were a lot of glowsticks  for sale.  Preferring to save money, the boys got to enjoy collecting them as groundscores after the event. For those of you who don't share my musical interests, you likely have not seen what is known in show-parlance as a "glowstick war."  Individuals who love glowsticks will bring in huge tubes of them and gather them together to throw into the air all at once.  Or get them sent to the venue for pick up inside.  But we're talking big numbers here, like 400 at a time.  This distribution of the glowsticks happens all at once and it is a free-for-all.  Good folks doing good things for the greater community.

A few weeks ago a video was made of how they launch 2,000 glowsticks all at once.   Many people and a large tarp are involved.  As well as inspiring music.

Click here to get to the video, it is worth it!

And that wonderful tune Age of Miracles in the video was a subject of a blog post of mine last January.
