"This event will honor our Founding Fathers and provide a forum for people to speak out against the outrageous activities taking place in Washington, DC," Nye said. "This country was founded on the principles of individual rights, limited government and free enterprise. Arrogant, short sighted politicians in Washington, DC have forgotten those principles, and so we must remind them what made this country great, and of the oaths they took when sworn into office."

The event will feature guest speakers, entertainment and dozens of exhibitors. There will be a baseball game and fireworks display afterwards; both are included in the $5 ticket price.

"The Tea Party movement serves as the catalyst to get ordinary working people involved - we want them to come out, get engaged, and learn how they can make a difference in the process," Nye said. "Apathy is no longer an option; just as our forefathers stood against the redcoats so many years ago, Americans must once again stand up and fight if they want to preserve the greatest country known to man."
