The ONE bus arrived in Gainesville, Florida on Saturday. Greeting the bus at Plaza of the Oaks on University Blvd, were 15 of our ONE club members and interns. Our ONE group at the University of Florida secured a place for the bus at the busy plaza. Throughout the day ONE staff helped the ONE group at UF to speak to hundreds of people visiting the plaza. We also signed up 150 new members.
As a ONE city Gainesville was very well represented while the bus garnered new members from throughout the city. We were also able to sign new UF students up for the group at the University. ONE had a wonderful day while in Gainesville. ONE staff would like to thank the people and leadership of Gainesville.
