BCA Christmas Float - Planning Meeting Coming Up! Middle Schoolers to help plan and build Christmas Float!
The annual East Ridge Christmas parade is coming up on Sat., November 18 at 6:30 p.m. BCA has participated in this parade for many, many years and often have won monetary prizes for our float presentation. Last year, and again this year, we are having the middle school students take part in planning the theme and design of the float. While a limited number of children will be able to ride on the float during the parade, we also want to involve our middle schoolers in the process by having them come up with the overall look of it. To do this, we will have a series of meetings. The first planning meeting will be Wed., Oct. 18 from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. (at the latest) in the cafeteria. Once the students have made plans for the overall design, we will begin building the float in early November. We will let you know the date and location for the float-building process or additional planning meetings. For more information, please contact Christmas float co-coordinators, Sheila Stephens (423-902-4448) or Christy Rodgers (423-413-5832) or more information. |
