Thanks to the folks who have stepped up to provide and decorate the float. If you would like to march with us, we would love to have you! Just show up to the downtown set-up location on Sunday, June 15th between 8am and 10am
Our group will be located on NW 8th Avenue, between Everett and Flanders. Parade organizers are strict about the 10am cutoff; it will probably difficult to get to us after that time. The parade will start around 11am, and usually lasts a couple of hours. We are #86 in the lineup, the map of the setup area can be found at http://pridenw.org/downloads/paradesetup.pdf
Wear your uniform or some sort of softball themed costume, we'll have a great float for you to dance and cheer from! If you would like to RSVP here so we can get a head count, that would be great. If you decide to join later on, just head on down!
