Leduc Parade
Each year the Tri-County Snowmobile Club helps out with the Leduc Black Gold Parade. A group of our members, 8-12 or so, volunteer to assist. We help assemble the parade by escorting floats to their spot in the staging area, we help block and control traffic and we run up and down the parade route helping the parade to run smooth (keeping kids out of wheels, people off the street, keeping people from throwing things, picking up the odd mascot that has fallen behind -etc).  We have machines for some people but if you have quad we would especially appreciate your help.  If you are interested in helping, please let me know.
MUST call
