    So now that we are getting close to the date of the Grape and Wine Festival I was wondering. Have any plans come together yet. Including helpers, where we are going to meet and dress up.


    I plan on being there.


    And any other info on the parade would help as well.

    I can't see that the date of the Parade is actually posted anywhere!

    Grape and Wine Pen Centre Grand Parade is on Saturday, September 25th starting at 11:00.

    This year's theme is " ?Hockey Homecoming: The Pride is Back?. Not sure what we can do with that..LOL!

    Parade Route Map Here


    More details will follow after the meeting tomorrow, but at least you can book time off from work if you need to.....like me!

    too bad for me, if I wanted to book time off (Friday night) I had to do that 3 months ago. But I have Saturday off already, so that's good.

    But the rain I wasnt happy with.

    For the record, I don't have a costume and I'm being non-commital on whether I'm going to show up.

    If I tell you I'll be there I might. If I tell you I won't I might... so I might as well just tell you I might.

    if you don't have a costume don't worry about that, many people have more than one that they'll bring.

    Actually I would like to be a helper.


    I did the St Paddies Day parade. That was interesting with the drunks.

    Unfortunately Heath and I will have to miss the G&W this year :(

    I don't know about Heath but even though it poured last year I had a great time. It would have been even better this year now that I know a lot more people.

    Next year I will be there. Maybe I'll have another droid finished by then.

    Well, looks like Matt and I will be leaching costumes as per usual...I really should get a costume by now, but Teh Aragorn one is taking up too much time/money on its own (Made myself new boots, whee!).

    That said, if you really wanted to stick with the hockey theme, shouldn't be hard to get hockey sticks and TO Jerseys for everybody to borrow, and probably at least half of us can hold our own on rollerblades :) It would certainly be a hell of a picture ;)
