What we do:  We watch the parade and help get the floats lined up.  Then we help with traffic coordination.

A little parade history: This was Marvin Atherton's idea noting metro Atlanta did not have a Memorial Day parade. Rick Morris KD4VOJ had just moved to Dacula and wanted the parade as a scout and amateur radio service. Rick and Bill AB0KF agreed to coordinate with GARS.

Earl, AF4FG is coordinating this event, and needs to know who plans to be there.  We need approximately 20 members to show up, so don't be bashful.
