We will line up on Depot St. at 10:00. I am still waiting for our entry # to be assigned.
As with past years, we can meet behind the Watkinsville McDonalds at 9:00am and ride to the line up spot together. _________________ 73 Typ481

This year it appears that they are serious about not having candy thrown from parade entries. They want people to walk along side entries and hand out candy. I believe that we have a couple of young folks that are willing to walk and give out candy. They can give out your candy (if you choose to bring candy) or you can have someone from your car walk too.
The only other restriction is that there can be no live Santas in any displays. That honor is reserved for the last float in the parade. _________________ 73 Typ481

So much for the 1,000 piece candy launcher that I have been dreaming about using in the parade... _________________ Jake Raby

Thanks Wilson. I think Jon and maybe Ethan are going to walk as well as Riley Hester. _________________ 73 Typ481

The ice cream man in my 'hood as a kid would give out candy, with his sling shot...we paid in welts and screaming in pain. How did he get away with that? Anyways, that was my plan for this year--dashed. As of now look like just the bus will be rolling, unless I get the tank and oil leak squared away in the beetle. May do that this weekend. _________________ "A vision without a task is a dream - a task without a vision is drudgery- but a task with vision can change the world."

As usual, everyone's invited to hang at my place after the parade. I'll have lunch waiting. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

We are entry #59. If you go to Depot St. tell them entry 59 and they will direct you. If you meet us at McDonalds we will go to the line up spot together. _________________ 73 Typ481

We will be at the parade in a VW, but not sure what kind yet. I may be driving a car from the dealership for the Board of Commissioners. _________________ 63 Beetle |

If you plan on being in the parade please post and let me know.
The parade goes on rain or shine. Right now it looks like it could go either way Saturday. _________________ 73 Typ481
