How should I decorate the bus? I have the rack on top and was thinking about putting a piece of plywood and people up there. Any riders? My fam may be at another event, but I'll be in Watkinsville. _________________ "A vision without a task is a dream - a task without a vision is drudgery- but a task with vision can change the world."

People up there sounds dangerous, I'd put some presents and a stuffed animal or two. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

I didn't get garland. It's $20 for 100 feet at Lowes! Walmart was $5 for 15 feet.
I did get 32 small bows for door handles.
And 16 big bows for hood handles/ bumpers, etc...

I would suggest that real live people on top of a bus might get us UNinvited to future parades.
However, with a roofrack and all that space; decorating ideas are greatly expanded. _________________ 73 Typ481

Is there anyone who could make a video of the parade? Every year people talk about how great the parade is to be in, but we don't have any good video to show.
I'm not asking anyone to sit out, but a video would be great. _________________ 73 Typ481

I don't remember how many we had last year. It seems like it was about 12 cars, but as I age my memory gets fuzzy. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong. _________________ 73 Typ481
