Obviously you are not going to Sturgis.

My old home town! Is this the Pioneer Days or whatever they use to call it?

Not sure about the name, but North Bend is celebrating its 100th year and the celebration is now called Festival at Mt Si... it's getting gentrified I suppose... you know the Seattle nabes creep out into the mountains and over the pass, right?

Come on up and join us!
:cheers:

what do you mean I gotta have a clean smarty?!?!

I have this one on the calendar already!!! Yes, I have person trained for weekends so I can smarty party now!!!
and you know, Retta might even be painted by then. So I guess she'll be clean. Looking forward to it gang!

THE FESTIVAL AT MT. SI GRAND PARADE[FONT=Arial,Bold]
NORTH BEND, WA
Saturday AUGUST 8th, 2009​

Since the parade is already organized, basically all one needs to do is give a heads up and show up with a clean car.

Marty/bigcritter has already been in touch with the parade organizer so they are aware of our interest and they would love to have us. We have plenty of time to drum up interest.

Deadline for entries is July 25th. I was thinking that we put a placeholder entry for now with a ballpark number of smarties and adjust it as the time nears. I do not think that individual entries are required.

PNW smarties... Who is interested in participating in the parade?

Put our name in.

smart fortimo - is it too late to throw my smart in the ring? Sounds like a fun weekend.

Would tipping your smart in the ring be more carpe diem?

Not too late. Registration deadline is the 25th, but we're in with a ballpark number, no individual entry needed.

If two smarties show up, that's fine (been there, done that parade). I'll still be in it. If around ten show up (more likely) than that's great! The more the merrier ya know!

:cheers:

Taking pictures of smarts at a smart gathering??? What a great idea.

We'll miss you, Duner...


BTW, BigC - what time do we need to be lined up for the parade? It's a bit of a drive for me, so I'm wondering if I need to drive up Friday night.

oh - here>>> http://www.festivalatmtsi.org/docs/2009/Parade_Invitation_2009.pdf

it says Check-in and Line-up begin at 8:30 a.m. Parade will start at 10:30 a.m.

Entry Form

I've printed out the entry form for the parade. Now I have to decide what category we fall under for judging! I think probably OTHER (Smallest Car currently in production) or something similar! Thoughts, anyone??? Suggestions??

Should be able to make that one. But me in also.

Added your name to the sign-up sheet on the other thread! Sorry for any confusion. I just deleted the sign-up sheet that I'd originally included in this thread.

PINK LADY from Bellevue needs to be added !!

Since I'm the First PINK Smart in 'these here parts', I think I had better drive my proud little car in the North Bend Parade to represent the WET SIDE of Washington State and the Great City of Bellevue!!!!

PLUS, I have two mighty fine escorts as well !! :multi::multi:
