2017 Tremont Turkey Festival Parade

Post by Fraser »

It's on Sunday June 11. Those of us going on the big trip will be on the big trip and therefore unable to attend. I have the MIJC banners and can make sure they get to someone who will be participating in the parade, but only if you let me know soon. Post here if you're planning to attend.

We plan to do the parade if there are going to be multiple vehicles. If not, I'll save my candy for the 4th of July parade.

I had planned on going to the parade. Since I live so close and Gayle knows where you live, I can come by the next couple nights and pick up the banners. Could anyone going please post up to see the turnout.

Chad - I'll set the banners out front on the bench so you can get swing by and get them any time.

Another parade. This and Loie Loie. Seems a lot of kids are getting pretty picky about what they will pock up. I'm thinking something new to throw is needed
Maybe double AA batteries. Ha.
Idea's ? Find a Chinese Co that make little Jeeps ?

Great parade, pretty well represented....I had 25 pieces of candy left out of 900, and I didn't have anyone else with me to help throw.

iPhone charging cords. LOL

It did seem like a ton of candy just sitting on the ground. Sophie threw out her share of candy. I think I had over 1,000 pieces.
