I went to the DC Tour de Fat in DC and had a fantastic time. You people know how to party. Two questions for a group of us that wish to drive down from NoVA for the NC Tour stop-First…will there be enough Blood of the Karnies? We missed out and wish to try sucking some of that down. Second…one of my best buds at work is hearing impaired and loved the fact you all (or is it y’all?) had amazing interpreters in DC for sign language. Before he commits to joining us, we wanted to make sure that the interpreters were part of the show or request local ones just as good. But we did not see it listed anywhere here that there would be interpretation offered. So please let everyone know about the beer and the signing.
If you arrive for the parade, there should be enough of the ‘Blood of the Karnies’ beverage. I will put in a request for signing. While volunteering I have not been able to see the stage, so I don’t know if our Durham show has had signing. I will update as soon as I have an answer.
I confirmed, there is sign language interpreter.
