Parade Day Wrap Up
Can you believe our 17th year marching in Binghamton has come and gone!! What a fast season this was!!! But for those going to Syracuse we will have another parade ahead of us! YEA!!!
SYRACUSE:
Just wanted to let you know for those going to Syracuse we will have a practice NEXT Thursday, MARCH 13th, same time and place (7:00, the Moose). We will fill you in on all the info. Even though the bus is full we still have several cars following the bus up...a mini Kazoo Convoy!!! So if you are still interested in joining us please do! Come to the meeting and find out all the info. Attached is a bus list (see below also), cars following, and waiting list for bus. If you can not make it please let us know so we can move one of the folks onto the bus from the list.
I want to thank everyone for such a great year!! This year we had 92 returning Kazooers and 39 newbies! What a year!!!
We want to thank Ben, Kay, Lynn, Bob, Tracy. Craig, and Erin (I think I got everyone) for the wonderful float and the queens chariot. The detail was amazing .... if you did not see the detail you need to go back and look at some of Steve's Pictures. I know Ben and Kay spent weeks working on this project. THANKS TO THE FLOAT TEAM!
Thanks also to our Balloon team who always cease to amaze me on how fast they can blow up and organize all those balloons. Thanks also to the JELLO shot folks and for those wonderful Choc Baileys puddings. I have heard several folks wanting the recipes for the tri-color jello shots (they looked like the Irish flag) ... so please send and I will post!!
Thank You Kazooers for you kind donations to CHOW, our barrels were picked up on Monday. Thanks Ben for this great idea, and Jon for arranging all the drop off and pick up times. And Cheeser for meeting the CHOW folks at the Moose. I think we should do this every year!!!
Wolf Tones:
Since many folks and drummers can not make Wolfe Tone gig on March 17th we decided NOT to do this. You will have to purchase your tickets on your own. We have already reserved many seats and hope to see you all there. I think you can buy these at Giant Markets, or call or stop by the AOH they will have information for sure. Hope to see you there, last concert was a lot of fun. They do have an open bar to purchase drinks prior to concert and they can be brought into the room. Get there early for good seats!!
And of course thanks to Jon and Mary for all the hard work they put into not only doing the hats but also leading the sweatshirt painting each year. This year we had over 31 people paint shirts!!
And last but no least thanks to our drummers for helping us keep the street beat ..... ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE DRUMMERS ....they would like to add more drummers and perhaps another bell babe, so if you so choose to join us, drop us a note .... we are thinking Bode on snare so that means another cymbal player. We will look at getting more drums and starting drum practice this summer. Snare, base, cymbals, bodhran????
