Niagara, ON Grape and Wine Festival updates

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.

 

We have a meeting this Saturday (the 21st) and its to be one of the topics of discussion.

Look for more information to be posted early in the new week.

 

Great, I have been wondering whats going on involving the Parade.

 

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!

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.

 

well leave right after work on friday night, like ill be doing

 

Stormies on Roller blades with sticks!

 

leave right after work on Friday... yeah, that's what I did last weekend, ask Justin how it feels to be woken up at 5:30am to let me in... I work till 3 am.

 

sleep in your car, like beezle did last year, although he did cuss he couldnt find the rings house, last year we were up almost that late

 

LOL

That got me going.

I remember that fondly.

Remember its 16 not 13.



But oh well. I will make sure that wont happen again.
but I still enjoyed staying over saturday night. The family was great. I was happy.

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.

 

Decisiveness is a virtue.

 

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.

 

interesting is probably the right word... I've never seen so many drunk people.

 

Decisiveness is a virtue.

I make up for it with honesty

 

I'll be there...

 

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.

I will definately be there!!! I'll try to drag Peter along too....

 

I don't see why i shouldn't be there.

Although i lack a costume right now.

 

Oh yeah I know i'll probably be posting this again later when we start comin down to brass tacks, but i got a spare Han Solo costume now. A couple variants (Blue pants, vest, or brown pants, blue jacket) to choose from.

 

I will be there of course, got to work on the costume a bit, some different things to try.

 

I'll be there as well.

 

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
