4TH of July Parade in New Jersey

Once again I have recieved an Invitation for Mini's in
The Ridgefield Park 4th of July Parade.
It is being held on that Monday the 4Th of July.

Last year we had 6 Mini's Participate.
Everyone I believe had a great time.
We decorated the cars with streamers and Flags before the Parade stepped off.
Had hot dogs and beer and soda at the end.
Then a little run up to the Hudson River under the George Washington Bridge. It rained a little in the afternoon but didn't dampen anyones spirit.

So I am asking Now
Is anyone interested in participating in the Parade this year.
I need to know by May 25th
]
The Ridgefield Park Parade is one of the Oldest continiuos Parades in the Country.
This will be the 111 continiuos running of the Parade
We will meet at approximately 11:00am and the Parade will be over by 2:15pm
Please Post if interesed

Hey Tony, It sounds like something we'd enjoy. I'll defer to the Social Director.

4th of July Parade

Okay,
So heres the Skinny on the Parade.
You need to be at Park Street between Euclid Ave and Hudson St.
by 10:30 Am Parade steps off at 11:00.
Heres some easy directions.
From Rte 80 east local lanes get off exit 67 go straight up to Main st make a right turn go down till you get to traffic light ( Mount Vernon) make left
two blocks make left (Euclid) make left one block Park st make right
its a one way you will be going the wrong way its okay for the parade.
Turnpike North or GWB folow signs for rte 46 west Ridgefield Park
at Mobil station make right on to Main st go two traffic light Make Right
(Mount Vernon) 2 blocks Make left (Euclid) one block go down Park st the wrong way.

Bring some stuff to decorate your car I will also have some stuff for you
I need some kinda head count so I know how much to buy.

Post or PM me this week I will give you my cell phone number if you PM me and you don't trust my directions

See you all soon
