I know it's early, but I just wanted to start gauging interest in marching in the 2007 University of Missouri (Columbia) Homecoming Parade. Being midway between KC and STL, I'm hoping a lot of you will want to take part! It's scheduled this year for October 20. A walking spot is $60, so before Brandon and I shell out the bucks, we want to make sure we'll have a pretty good turn out. It is one of the largest Homecoming parades in America, so it will give us a good opportunity for public interest and media coverage.

Gimme a "yea" or "nay" if you think you might want to do this!

Hello,

Im sorry to say, but Bernadette and I will not be available for the parade. We are autocrating a medieval re-enactment event that weekend in Fulton and will be busy from Oct. 19th to the 21st.

:(

Regards,

It's hard to say if I can do this without seeing more details on it. I would love to do it, I'm sure faron would to. Where, when, you know that kind of stuff. Any info would help. I can ask off as soon as I can figure out if I am going to do it.

Both are in the first post :) . Where is Columbia, Missouri. When is Oct. 20 2007. Time is still TBA at this time but should be starting around 10:00 am or so.

This is one of the biggest parades in Mid-Mo and will have tv coverage from three local stations.

I'd like to do it, I don't know about Faron. Pretty sure I could ask off for that day. Just a three hour drive, maybe less for us.

As much as I've been trying to get into one of the sororities here (seems being a guy precludes membership :( I can offer a place to stay for 2-3 folks. We have a spare bedroom, and also anyone who wants to bring a sleeping bag is welcome to floorspace.

We also have a fold-out couch, so we could probably accomodate a couple more.

I'll work on the sorority house angle in the meantime :)
