We don't need to be to the line-up spot until 9:30am/9:45am, so the 8:30am start is an hour to:

arrive at Monroe Community Hospital (can provide directions later)
go to the bathroom, hydrate, have a quick breakfast snack
get suited up
walk (or maybe ride if we get a transport lined up) to the meet-up spot

So if you think it would take you less than an hour to do the above, you can arrive later than 8:30am, but....
So far I think we've found that (once you add in the kibitzing) 8:30am is a good meet-up time. wink

For those that might not be up to the entire walk - we will have a nice truck in the parade that you can ride in the back of.

I'm not sure yet...
We'll probably get a list going next month.
I would say bring something that would keep well between when you leave town and the picnic as it'll probably be sitting in a car that whole time.

Just wanted to bump this a little bit as I'm hoping to mail out the application tomorrow and wanted to get as accurate a head count as possible.

Sounds like we have Ian definitely and probably Bob & family?

So far we're doing pretty good on side dishes, so if you're looking for something to bring as a dish to pass I'll stear you towards desserts or snack foods.
If you're keen on bringing a side dish, we already have mac salad, pasta salad, potato salad and a 5 baked bean dish. shock
Another option would bring some 2 litres of your favorite soda.

Thanks so much to Bob & family for joining us at the parade! grin
Especially our helpful banner carriers - we really appreciate you once again taking on that task for us.

Make sure to pencil in May 9th 2009 as we're planning on being in the parade again next year!
