We have been asked if the club could provide some vehicles for the Parade on 6/24.  It would be 5-10 vehicles.

The only requirement is that the vehicle have no top, or the top down to carry dignitaries in the parade.

Can I quickly get interest from everyone?  I would hate to let the committee down if it's in the name of our club.

 

Thanks!

Kathleen and Brad

I will need to hear from many more people, very soon, or I'll have to cancel this opportunity with the parade service.

thats my daughters birthday weekend, not sure at this time if I will be free or not.  Plus, not sure if mine would be the type of vehicle they are looking for.

They are looking for 4-5 convertible type vehicles. plus other club vehicles as well! 

 

But we need 4-5 that can "open top".  Yes!  Early Broncos are good!

 

Staging is 8 AM-ish.  Parade is 930-1030 so this won't ruin anyone's day since you'd be done before 11.

They are welcoming our entire club, waiving all club entry fees, and allowing us to carry/show a banner as part of our group!

 

It looks like we are at 2-3 vehicles - and Dale has no top excuses!

As I mentioned, I will be out of town. If Dale or someone wants to borrow my topless TJ for this event you are welcome to use it.

Thanks for the responses so far!  we are getting close!  And extras non-topless are also welcome.

 

Please post the year make/model and color of what you are bringing.  I think the parade committee uses the info for waiving any fees.

So you're saying it identifies as white?

I think I can but I’ll check the date  to be sure. What if it’s open with half doors off but top over passengers?

We can do this!  Top on or Top Off.  Either way, we can run our 2011 Silver JK and wave and pelt onlookers with hard candy and see if we can hit people for points... (wait, did I say that out loud? laughing

Let's do this!  Bumping the thread up and we know we have enough vehicles.  

I am hoping we have the 5 confirmed "topess" vehicles soon.

 

Kevin - 2012 White Jeep JKU

Brad - 2011 Silver Jeep JK (or unlikely, a Bronco)

Guy - (hopefully) 2020 White Jeep Gladiator

Kris - 2019(?) Jeep JLU Green

Gil - 2005 White Jeep TJ

Please confirm, and post if others are making it to ensure we are covered!

 

Buck is a maybe but I do have his info above.  Thanks!

Staging begins at 8AM at Coloma and Sutter st.  Once at the far end of Sutter st, you can depart.   Parade starts at 930.  

You need to register using the parade form (below).  The fee is waived - so there is no cost to our club.

The parade form looks like we just need one for the group, or am I reading it wrong?
