It was a beautiful day for the Parade and a great bunch to skate with. I ended up skating the route three times - first was to distribute the SOLV bags, second to skate the route back to the Bureau of Maintenance, and then after deciding to help pick up bags, I skated again at the end of the parade with one other inline skater.

Thanks for organizing the Parade effort. I enjoyed it as usual and can only say that my motto this year was 'let it come to me' as in let the people flag me or ask for a garbage bag. And you know, I had plenty of customers! The people were so nice and a number of them thanked us for what we were doing. That feels good to hear once in a while! Jerry |

I had a great time skating in the Pre-Parade for the third straight year. It was see all of the PISA skaters again. It's amazing to see how happy people are to get a free plastic trash bag. Imagine if we were handing out something really valuable! Anyway, it is really fun to have the whole street to skate on and not have to dodge cars and trucks. Maybe we should carry a banner ahead of the group so we look like were are actually part of the parade.
