Thanks to KennyJoe, I now have the info regarding participating in the Lansingville Parade.
Thank  you very much!
I have a request for the forum members. 
We may or may not have a vehicle, but either way, we will need  banners.
If we have a vehicle then 2 banners will be needed - one for each side.
I am clueless about where to go to get the materials to make a vinyl banner that can be carried easily by several people or can be mounted to the side of a vehicle.
If anyone has information about this, please let me know. 
I realize we can have them made but there are limited funds and not too much time.
If you would like to participate and march in the parade with us, all are welcome to join in. 
Only a few will be able to ride if we have a vehicle but others can walk alongside and perhaps we can spell each other if anyone gets tired.

Please consider coming out  for the parade.
Everyone assembles  12:30ish at the St. Matthias School parking lot, but earlier arrivals are welcome to meet and greet. June 30th

I am certain that the Lansingville Prade Committee is open to 'B' groups as well as "Z" groups.  "B" groups meaning Bikes (moterized or not) and "BANNER" groups - provided the "BANNER" group promotes the interest of Lansingville and it's citizens.  We have a group who are going to pass out flyers concerning an up coming Free Clinic at Bethlehem Luthern Church on Midlothian at Sunset.  We may even have ACTION people involved.  We may even have a horse or two in the parade - UNFORTUNATLY - they are not from Lansingville - but who doesn't like a hourse in a parade can look the other way - just watch where you step  ;)
Jay - call me for more info if needed or helpful to the cause.  I am not online often but will try to "come aboard" more often  :)
A GROUP from this site would be most welcome ! ! !

How about walking groups carrying banners?

Does the Lansingville Parade allow bicycles to take part?  I know a few south side block watch members who are in the process of purchasing new patrol bikes.

It is going to be Saturday, June 30th. Need to check with the president of the Lansingville Block Watch for the time. I believe they are encouraging participants and spectators. I participated a few years ago and it's a lot of fun!

A friend claims that the Lansingville parade will return to the south side of Youngstown this year.  Now all we need is to know is the date and time of the event.  In previous years, the parade was followed by a neighborhood block picnic.
