Granger Lakefest is this Saturday, May 7th

The WCDP will be participating in a parade and also have a booth at Granger Lakefest. Events commence at 9 but I think the parade starts 10:30 (with 9:30 being assembly time) and will probably last an hour at most. The entire festival goes on through dancing in the evening but we will end our tabling booth around 5 or 6. Here's the blurb in our local paper:
The 27th annual Granger Lakefest will take place Saturday, May 7, beginning at 9 a.m. Events for the day will include a kolache sale, parade, arts and crafts, a barbecue cookoff (categories for cash prizes in beef, pork, chicken, exotic, seafood, and beans), children's rides and games, an auction, a car/truck/tractor/motorcycle show, horseshoe tournament (double elimination with cash prizes), a variety of food and drinks including a beer garden, high school class reunions, live music in the park from noon to 4 p.m. by Clem Kubacak and the Polka Stars, and an evening dance by People's Choice at the Cotton Club and Steakhouse. Admission is free for the day's events , but the dance admission is $10.h
Wear comfortable shoes and britches and if you don't already have one of those Another Texas Democrat T-shirts, we'll have them on sale for $10 in a vast array of sizes, which you can don once you appear. I'll be at the booth on Granger's main street, Davilla Street, from 7 that morning...or you can meet for the parade line-up no later than 8:30 at the S. S. Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church Recreation Hall at the west end of Davilla (two blocks north of FM 971 that you'll probably take to come into Granger).

URGENT:
We need a bar stool with back, one of those you might have at your own kitchen counter that's just begging to be loaned to us for the Parade Float, to secure our big ol' waving Uncle Sam. Please contact me/Jane (contact information below) at once/asap/immediately/post haste/etc. if you are the lucky person who can let us borrow it so we can make arrangements to retrieve it.


If your not busy on Saturday go out to Granger and support the WCDP.
