CHRISTMAS PARADE

When: Thursday, November 29, 2007
Time: be there at 5:00 p.m., parade begins at 6:00 p.m.
Where: Bow & Broadway
This is supposed to be the largest parade ever.
No Santa costume allowed.
Decorate your bike.
When: Thu, Dec
4th 2003
Where - Time:
Line up will start at the Municipal Court, downtown, at 5 PM.
The parade starts
at 6 PM. We are 42nd in the line up. We'll probably find each
other behind
the new Salvation
Army building, where the old one was located, on North Spring St.
You can
park at the Chamber
of Commerce if you get there early.
For the safety
of the children only people walking in the parade can throw candy to the
children.
If you bring
some, make sure you are close to them so that they don't run on the street.
We need two volunteers
to carry the club banner. Those two persons will have to walk
about 8
or ten blocks.
Let me know.
Don't forget
to layer and decorate your bike. You'll find fun little lights at
Michael's or Hobby
Lobby.
Remember:
Children can ride but they have to be with their parents.
Please, come.
Let's show Tyler that we have a strong club. We would love to see
bicycle lanes
in town one day!

CHRISTMAS
PARADE
WE
WILL BE IN THE FRONT!!!! Dec 5
They
have put us in the #10 spot in the parade, behind the VIPs and the TJC
Apache Belles and
Band.
It means that the more people we have, the better. WE NEED TWO PERSONS
WALKING
AND HOLDING THE BANNER. Let me know if you can volunteer for this.
The
line up starts at 5 PM along University Place and College Ave. The parade
will begin
promptly
at 6: PM at Broadway and University Place. It will go north on Broadway,
then around
the
square and back down College Ave. Since we are going to be in the front,
we need to be
there
early.
The
street closure will begin at 5:30 PM and will last until 7:25 PM for the
parade route.
The
closure of College Ave. and University Place will begin at 5:00 PM.
They
don't want Santa to appear in our group. Where you thinking about it?
Awards
will be given to the "Most Christmas Spirit", "Most School Spirit", and
the "Most
Creative
Christmas Float".
Everyone
is invited to the Christmas Tree Lighting on the square immediately following
the
parade.
For
safety reasons the Tyler Police Department does not want anyone throwing
candy from a
float
or a vehicle. The groups must have someone walk a minimum of 4 feet from
the vehicle and
hand
it out from there. I think that the two persons carrying our banner can
handle that. Bring
your
bag of candy.
If
you are going to ride, don't forget your tail light and head light (any
size). Wear your TBC jersey
if
you have one. Adorn your bike with lights and anything you like. I'm sure
we'll find each other
like
we have always done.

December 6, 2001
TIME: 5:15
P.M.
START:
6:00 P.M.
PARKING:
Downtown at the Municipal Court, Salvation Army or Old Cinema Theater.
ROUTE:
Starts on N. Broadway at the Municipal Court, then down south on Broadway
to the square and around it, east one block by the Courthouse, then north
on the street behind the Courthouse back to Municipal Court (about 6 blocks).
I encourage the
TBC members who watched the parade last year and then were envious and
regretful for not participating, to line up, ride the bikes and have fun
this year.
If you have a
child carrier on your bike and wish to ride with your children, do so.
Small children can ride their bikes or tricycles as long as they follow
the adults and stay in the group. Last year we decorated our bikes
with battery operated cheap lights bought at Hobby Lobby and other places.
Be creative. Wear your TBC club jersey if you have one. Eric
and I have two extra jersey we can lend. Last year we had good weather.
If it gets chilly we'll wear tights and a couple of layers under our jerseys.
Please, help me
spread the word out. Hope you can come.
