Event: Cops 4 Cancer Parade
Date: 7/13/13
Attendees: Darth Vader - Mike Olson Sl319
I arrived at The Right Spice Restaurant at 11:30 to meet with the contact. The restaurant owner was very nice to allow me to suit up in his back dinning room and store my tote. I walked down to the staging area and posed for several pictures with some of the other parade members. At 1 pm, the two and a half mile parade began and I was very grateful to ride standing on the bed of a truck. The contact and her daughter threw candy to the children while I looked as imposing as possible. The parade was a lot of fun and the contact was very grateful. If I receive any images in the near future I will post them to the page.

I think you could look at this once and then you are blocked out.... That is unless you subscribe to the News Tribune....

Yeah. I've never seen a news site so restrictive. I'm supposed to get some pics but I'm not sure when.
