St. Patricks Day Parade March 17th

[dutchman]

Did we ever get a response on how many vehicles?

[gCracker]

yes we cab have up to 10 trucks.

[Callelle]

Assuming we have to decorate the vehicles, is stuff like window paint fine? Or would we need to do more?

[smichaelR22]

in the past the club pays for some decorations and such.  i have a few stuff left over in the club stuff.  not sure if ill be around but the buggy might make it out!  maybe steel mikes trailer and do a float type thing?

[gCracker]

yeah we definitely need to be decorated up this year.  In the past we have done window paint and other paper goods stuck to the vehicles.

[gCracker]

I really think Mike's trailer would be a major pain to maneuver down there.. and possibly abusing their leniency on our multiple vehicle exemption. 

Looking at the parade route there is a large parking area near the end of the route on Plymouth, I assume buggies could be unloaded at the starting location and then the trucks and trailers stowed there(or unloaded at the parking area and drove to the start)  I don't think any cops would hassle you if you were driving smart just from the parking area to the starting position.  *But that is my opinion due at your own risk* 

I will not be able to attend so I need someone to take leadership.. anyone want to volunteer?

Here is the current list:
1.) Raddad
2.) Gramps
3.) Callelle
4.) dutchman
5.) gslarue
6.) AWL4928
7.) rockaholic
8.) Jacel86- 75%
9.) 94Tracker?
10.)SMike?

What time do we meet and when will it be over?

[rejeep]

just found out from my wife I have a prior obligation..
I will however be watching the parade @ GVC while eating the best St Patty day buffet

[jACeL86]

75% maybe for me.

[gCracker]

I just found out that were are to line up by Strathallan Park (near East Ave.)  We are #10 in division 9, behind Windjammer Bar & Grill.  Line up is at 11 and the parade is to start at 12:30.  Please plan to arrive there shortly before 11.  Jared has the banners.  Please plan to decorate your vehicle and display your best St. Patricks Day attire!  Vehicles must be clean!  I believe SMike has some decorations.

as always please remember our No-Alcohol policy during events, even though this is St. Patricks Day we need to put our best foot forward!

[smichaelR22]

i have very little decorations left, we should get more.


Not sure ill have time to clean the buggy up, or want the hassel of loading / taking it if weather is bad.

[Gramps]

Weather report for Saturday is wam with clouds and sun 66°.

[gCracker]

who can get decorations?  The Christmas Tree Store next to Home Depot usually has a decent cheap selection.

[smichaelR22]

i will look tonight and report back if i fail. 


do we have a confirmed list of attendees?  i am 50/50 right now.

Tony with an 05 Rubicon i just did a longarm kit / skid on wants to join the club and be in the parade if possible.
