Thanksgiving Day Parade SIGN UP

Postby Jason Rose » Sun Oct 04, 2009 6:12 pm

The Board of Directors has asked me to get us involved in the parade again this year. At the moment I'm still waiting to hear back from the organizers.

Assuming that we're in, who can make it?

Let me know.

Taking rest of 2009 and 2010 off-Allen

Postby Allen Farnsworth » Mon Oct 19, 2009 8:52 am

I decided in my best interest to take the rest of 2009 and 2010 off from the corps,I need to take care of myself,and its harder for me to march parades anymore, and also I felt in my heart very distant from the corps than I ever did even though I'm only in the Honor Guard and I felt very uncomfortable and also personal reasons.Hope that the corps will have a very succesful 2010 season.

When can my friend get fitted for bibbers and shoes? Or can I just get the size numbers?

I can bring the bibbers to rehearsal this week if you confirm that he will be there. If he knows the bibbers size or wears the same as you, you can just give me the size for them and his dress shoe size. We will need the money from him before we order them. Total is $60 - $20 for Dinkles and $40 for bibbers through size 3X ($60 for 4X or 5X).

Anybody else need new bibbers or Dinkles while we're ordering them?

I just talked to him right now right now and he said that he will be there Thursday. Are the $60 due up front?
