MAY DAY PARADE IN FORT LANGLEY

 The 91st Annual May Day Parade in Fort Langley will  be held on Victoria Day Monday, May 20,2013. This Fort Langley tradition will  begin on Church Street at 11 am and end at  the Fort Langley Community Park where the May Pole Dancing will begin. Check out the pancake breakfast at the *Fort Langley Seniors Hall 23022 – 88 Avenue before the parad or the famous Lions  BBQ chicken in the park afterward. This great family event will also feature children's rides and Mini-Golf.**


 WOLF is organizing the creation of a forest-themed float to participate in the parade. We need volunteers to help with the following tasks:

a)4-6 people interested in helping to prepare the float with signage and general decoration of the flatbed. This will take place sometime during the long weekend.

b)4-6 people interested in being in the parade on the float. We are looking for someone interested in being a lumberjack.  We might also consider a couple of "picknickers" to complete the scene  

c)People to help collect signatures for our latest petition and to hand out pamphlets. This could be during and after the parade. 

For more information contact me  Kirk Robertson at savemclellanpark@gmail.com.

By Thursday evening  we should know what the parade lineup is. So we will know who is behind and ahead of our float! The pro and anti bagpipe camps will be holding their collective breaths until then. That said we hope you will be able to join us in enjoying this great day. 

*The Lions  Pancake Breakfast is at the Seniors Hall is from 8am to 10;30am. This is by donation.
** The Fort Langley Community Park will feature all the  fun and festivities(including live entertainment) from 1pm to 4pm.
