Parade on Sunday

Come out and watch, come out and participate.   

Gwen Hunter started this quirky, fun and unexpectedly creative intermittent community event years ago and we will be thinking of and thanking her for this opportunity to come together safely to celebrate summer and silliness. 

If you are spectating, the parade route starts on Mission Road at 10:30, travels south on North Cove Road to the intersection with Pilkey Point Road, makes the left turn down the hill along the harbour head, turns right on Marina Drive by the boat launch, and loops around back to Pilkey Point Road and back up the hill to Forbes Hall.  This means that you can enjoy the parade twice, coming and going!  Bring a deck chair, sun hat and water bottle and cheer on the participants.  SPARKY the fire dog will be looking along the parade route for kids that like candy.

If you are participating with a float or other entry, come to Mission Road at 10 a.m.and fill in anywhere between Engine 1 at the front and the Rescue Truck that will bring up the rear.  We will begin moving at 10:30 sharp.  Please be always cautious of traffic .  

Who knows, you might be in a photo in the next Quarterly!

Cigarette Butts

On my walks this week I’ve noticed two fresh cigarette butts on the side of the road, literally 6 inches from foot high tall, dry grass.
If you absolutely need to smoke on your walk, please consider taking a tin can to put your cigarette out in, not putting it out on the side of the road.
We can’t afford to take any chances with these tinder dry conditions
Please remind your out of town visitors as well
Thank you
