Participants needed to represent GCAT in Santa Claus parade
Posted October 19, 2014
Since GCAT represents people who walk and cycle, we would like to get a group of people on their bicycles for the Santa Claus parade.
Our theme is that you can do anything on a bike. Therefore our costumes would be wedding dresses, suits and tuxes , dressy dresses, etc. to show that you can go about normal business while riding a bike. Some people think that you have to have “special bike gear” to ride a bike but we are working to convey the information that cycling is “normal” and you can do anything on it, even ride a bike on the way to get married….
Parade rules are that you must be over 9 years old, and that you must wear thematic costumes.
Who’s in? It should be lots of fun! For more info, contact activeguelph@gmail.com. A waiver may be required to participate.

An arts studio complete with sewing machines to create your own costumes.

A Parade Improvement Fund whereby we help you with the costs of the materials bought for your entry.
