Atlanta St. Patrick's Day Parade
« on: January 13, 2009, 12:17:16 am »
We've received our 8th invitation to drive in the Atlanta St. Patrick's Day Parade on March 14.  The deadline for registering is Feb. 1.  You don't need to be a member, or from Georgia.  There is no entry fee for you.  If your car cleans up well, we'd like to have you in the parade.  This is on the day of the regular meeting, and the meeting is cancelled but we will return to the Galaxy Diner after the parade.

Please contact me so I can get a count of cars for the registration form.

Arg. So what's the worst scenario if you register and then can't get your car in? I'd love to be in it, but I'm not 100% sure it'll be ready by then; it's cuttin it close. Would it be a big no-no to do that?

Every year, we have people show up who didn't plan to attend, and we have people who drop out after I've submitted the application.  Nancy, the parade organizer, needs to have a count of the cars so she can plan for placement in the pre-staging areas. 

When I submit the application, I have to tell her how many cars.  A variation of a few cars isn't a problem, but if we only submitted for 1 or 2 and 20 showed up, well you could see there may be a problem. 

If we had to pay an entry fee, it would be an entirely different matter, as far as the club's concerned because it would be money wasted, but since we're a registered non-profit group, we get free entry.

Rizzi, how many cars?  All 3?  Heck, you could almost be a parade unto yourself.  Get 'em out and drive them before the parade to be sure they're ok. 

The Solstice/Sky folks have already got their app submitted and will meet with us at the pre-staging area on Howell Mill Road to drive down to the parade staging area.

Pat has 2 cars that he may need drivers for if he doesn't get back in time from his daughter's wedding in Florida.  He will need at least 1 driver.  Contact him for information.

Thanks Charlie.

Hey Pat, do you need someone drive a car in the parade? (This is the only way that I have to contact him.) Scott
