We hope your summer is going swimmingly (if not, it will be soon—at the beach on 8/16)! For those comers who opt to go through the Park gate, make a quick right/u-turn just past the gate, go past Shelter A and park at the end of the lot (we’ll have signs up).
Some of you have asked what qualifies as a “bike” for the parade/competition; the answer is: as long as it has wheels and can be pushed/pulled/dragged/ridden-but-not-driven-or-flown (as with an automobile, bus, truck or plane), it qualifies!
Just remember that it must be small enough to fit in the parade line-up and its ‘outfit’ must leave some part of its wheels visible (see attached shoe bike sample).
We’ll start registering attendees at 10 AM. Don’t forget that food and drink are provided (by Cosmos Restaurant). Also, your attendance entitles you to participate in an opportunity drawing (see attachment in case you want to improve your chances).
And, if you get tired of lolling about in the sun, you can shop at our boutique for one-of-a-kind decorative wearables–as well as special PEP4U T-shirts (our BBB event IS a fund-raiser after all!). Be sure to bring beach towels (some of you may get wet while playing ball).
But leave tables and chairs, etc., home (except for your favorite beach chair). If you plan to do serious sun-bathing, bring hats, sun lotion and bathing suits–there are places to change clothes.
We have scheduled activities and the parade should begin by 2 PM. Each entrant will get a number and be lined up at that time for the show-off part before the winner is announced. (We’ve attached our BBB flier that shows a few dressed-up bikes to stimulate your creativity.) For those who want to avoid freeway rush-hour traffic, we’ll conclude planned activities with the Opportunity Drawing around 3 PM so that you can miss heavy traffic, but the party can go on. Feel free to invite friends, relatives and others who care about PD.
