Accy Carnival float

maccawozzagod · 26-05-2007, 13:17

Right we have until tuesday morning to decide if we are doing a float for the carnival.

We have a wagon sorted but it needs confirming or cancelling before tuesday. The original plan was that the OSC were gonna do the stall at the field and The Ultras were gonna do the float. But I haven't been able to get hold of Jase so nobody seems to know whether it will happen or not, and if it is, what is happening.

So we need a contingency, does the Stanley side of Accy web want to run the float. We have a couple of ballpark ideas to play around with but get a few of you together and come up with your own ideas if you wish.

STANLEY HAS TO BE REPRESENTED AT THE CARNIVAL!

You all now have a chance to get involved and parade yourselves in front of Accy as Stanley Supporters.

It will take up your saturday morning on the 16th June, but after that the day is your own. And we will prob have the pub crawl afterwards.

Those who had offered or were planning on being involved with the stall can do both still but I need at least a couple of volunteers with me to help set it up, everybody else can their ugly mugs on all the pictures.

Who is in?

I'll not comment on the last two post for fear of Retribution. There's not alot I can offer, I will be over on the day and I'll make sure I'm kitted up, I've sent a pm re the other thing.

we need some bodies to put on the float and we need somebody to dress the float with whatever and even just wave flags.

we just need to be there in the parade.

Macca... I am more than impressed with your energy however i feel the club should be offering support as well.

It's essential Stanley are on the parade but it needs everybody to move quickly here and that includes the club.

Will the club get Surridge's to donate some give aways Tees/footballs etc after all they are only up the road and the carnival is a community project ?? come on Rob or anybody at the club Get involved this is TOP public relations.

I cant donate the time as i'm unavailable but am more than happy to send up a few boxes of sweets.

Good luck in this great venture.
