We want YOU to help US make the 2008 parade the BIGGEST & BEST ever!

Businesses, schools, churches, special interest groups, clubs, sport teams, individuals ~

please consider this your invitation to enter a float in our parade.

We also invite you to enter decorated bikes, strollers, costumed characters, sport teams in uniform, bands, etc.

This is an excellent opportunity to advertise a business, promote an activity, support a cause, honour your community, or just have some fun.

The parade is always VERY WELL ATTENDED and we would like everyone to have lots of OOHS & AAHS!

The theme for the parade is ‘Pirates & Princesses’.

It would be great if you could creatively incorporate this into your entry.

Prizes will be awarded to the

BEST OVERALL ENTRY ($100), BEST THEMED ENTRY ($50),

MOST HOMOROUS ENTRY ($50), and MOST ORIGINAL ENTRY ($50)

Please register your entry by calling the Recreation Department (882-2476) or Janet Hackett (882-2143). We hope to have a committee member contact you soon to answer any question/concerns you may have.

*** PLEASE NOTE ***

We ask that there not be any candy, gum, etc. from the floats

but you can walk beside your float passing out treats (safety issue)

There is to be no soliciting (fundraising activities) as part of the parade or along the route

There is a new route this year. The parade will begin at the Liquor Store, turn left onto to Church St. and will travel straight through the Community to Judy’s Take Out

Thank you.

Can’t wait to see you in the Parade!
