Bill Neil requests help with assisting in the staging of the parade participants, manning stations along the route to set up barricades to direct the parade, possibly manning golf carts with radios to assist in keeping the parade moving and communications, radio communications for safety and parade marshalling, setting barricades off to the side when the parade is over. If enough people are interested, they can set up a crew to assist the organizers. A meeting will be held at the A&W in Ardrossan for breakfast, the morning of the event. If you are interested in participating and would like to put your radios and vehicles to good use, please let Bill know and he will contact the organizers. Bill will be attending the organizers meeting on Wednesday evening so any and all responses are appreciated. CallsignRambo98@gmail.com or 780-982-1042
