Specific details about Freedom Drive kick-off events, rally locations, departure times, road/travel logistics/procedures, detailed rally city maps, etc. will be released in the near future.  All drivers need to be ready to DEPART each rally city in the AM of the designated day.  Some rally point events for drivers may be scheduled the evening before departing a rally city.

Drivers coming from all points North and South should drive to I-70 and join the Drive at the nearest point possible, preferably at a rally city "intersection".

There are approximately 10 driving hours between each of the "rally" cities.  Drivers leaving from east of Indianapolis should plan their travels to arrive in DC before noon.  All drivers should plan to be within 1-2 driving hours of DC by the evening of Wednesday,  11/13. 

Drivers coming from West Coast cities and western states should plan their schedules accordingly to join the main drive in Salt Lake and/or Denver.  Drivers from the Northwest should rally in Salt Lake and will take Interstate-80 east to Denver, via Cheyenne, Wyoming.   Drivers from the LA area and the general Southwest will rally first in Denver, bypassing Salt Lake City.
