I've learned that it's the 21st.  I originally assumed it was next weekend, but......

Are you still attending and will your daughter still be able to help carry the banner?
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Good.  I just got an email from Jennifer to confirm our application for 9 cars. 

TopNotch and GrannyLinda went to Party City over the weekend and found a transparent green table cloth that they think will be ideal for covering headlights.  They will report back on the suitability so we know whether to search further. 

Just be sure the daughter has lots of green.  I'll try to pick up a couple of clear ponchos just in case it might be a rainy day.

Are they clear so that green clothing will show through and are they small enough for 2 girls the size of Ron's daughter?  The girl from my church is a little bigger than Ron's daughter but the same size should fit them.  I also have two black and white panel umbrellas that they can carry if needed. 

We only had 2 years where it rained at the Atlanta parade.  One year it rained during, and the other it rained until just before and started back just as we finished.

Yes The Ponchos Are Clear With Hoods.
Pat Said The Table Cloth Won't Work.
So While I Was Out Today I Picked Up 2 Rolls Of Green Cellophane
That Will Work.
I Also Picked Up 2 Cardboard Tiaras For The Girls That Are
Carrying Our Banner.
The Tiaras Are Green With Shamrocks On Them.

Sorry.  Nothing can be thrown from the vehicles.  The application says specifically no candy may be thrown.  It's probably a safety concern of children running into the path of a car to get candy or anything tossed from a vehicle.  We had the same restrictions in Atlanta.

The check was for the entry fee and the club has already paid it.

Considering the large number of members attending last Saturday, that was odd to not have a single Fiero in the parking lot!

In all my years, I believe it was a first.

Pat and Linda provided some rolls of green streamers and some static cling decorations for the cars and a roll of green film.  Today Ray and I did some testing and the film will work very well.  We'll cut some pieces and have them ready to place onto the headlights.
