Dec. 6 Watkinville Christmas Parade

We are confirmed for the parade and will line up on Depot St as usual.
Also as usual, we will meet behind McDonalds at 9:00 and head to our line up spot at 9:30 as a group. So meet at McDonalds at 9:00 or on Depot St by 10:00. The parade starts at 11:00 so there is plenty of time to decorate your car once we are lined up. The parade goes on rain or shine. (we prefer shine )

Clyde will be hosting his annual open house after the parade.

I'm confused.  What time?

To clarify: We typically meet at the Watkinsville McDonald's at 9:00 am. Then at 9:30ish we drive together to our parade line up spot. The organizers want us in place at 10:00 am and the parade starts at 11:00. Does that help?

That's great. I wish I could make it, but that is my daughters nutcracker dance weekend.

OUCH!

Once again this year the organizers are emphasizing that candy is to be handed out and not thrown.

One new 'rule' is No Trick Driving. I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with us and everything to do with the Jeeps who were driving up on top of one another's tires. Only 3 wheels on the ground may tend to make parents along the parade route a little nervous.

I'll be walking along side of the cars, so if anyone wants to bring candy I can hand it out.

Fun facts:

We are entry # 38.

The parade goes on rain or shine.

This year's theme is: Dashing Thru the Snow.

There will be a couple of port a potties this year, not on our street but fairly close.

We have a couple of volunteers who will walk with us and hand out candy.

We WILL have FUN as we always do!!!
