Dear Kiwanis Community Parade Participant,                                                   May 1, 2008

 This is your invitation to join the KIWANIS Club of St. Helens for the 2008 Kiwanis Community Parade in St. Helens, Oregon on Saturday, June 21, 2008.  The parade is brought to you by our sponsors:  Columbia River PUD, Pacific Stainless Products, Inc. and Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc.

 If you have received this invitation and you are no longer associated with the group when you were last in our parade, please pass this on to whoever may now be representing that group.  This invitation and registration form may also be down-loaded from www.sainthelenskiwanis.org.  Participation in the parade is free of charge but the application form must be completed either by pre-registration or by registration the day of the parade.

 All motorized vehicles and mounted horse entries will be required to have liability insurance.  Please indicate that insurance is current by signing the registration form at the designated place.  If you plan to ride a horse in the parade please see reverse side.  To speed you through registration and help us avoid the last minute rush, please take the time to fill out the registration form in advance and return it to the address below at least by June 17, 2008:

 Kiwanis Community Parade

KIWANIS Club of St. Helens

Post Office Box 295

St. Helens, Oregon 97051

 The Parade begins at noon.  To insure that you are in your proper place in the staging area please arrive prior to 10:45 a.m.  If you arrive any later, we can not insure that your entry will be judged.  A first, second, third and fourth place ribbon will be awarded in each category.  In addition, three grand prize winners will be chosen which are the Mayor’s Trophy, the President’s Trophy and the Sweepstakes Trophy.  These three trophies will be awarded to the entries who best utilize or portray the parade theme.

 This year’s parade theme is:  “Fun in the Sun”

 When you arrive in St. Helens, report to the Registration Table, on Columbia Boulevard, just across the railroad tracks from Highway 30.  Registration will be set-up across Columbia Blvd. from Emmert Motors in their used car lot.  If you have filled-out the enclosed form and mailed it in advance, please tell the registration workers that you have pre-registered and give them the person‘s name on the registration form.  This will speed-up processing and the assignment of your entry number.  Without an entry number your entry will not be judged.  The entry number also determines where you will assemble prior to the parade.  We hope you enjoy your participation in the St. Helens Community Parade and come back next year.

 Sincerely,

Joe Schultz, Parade Chairman
