So update:
WE ARE DOING THE PARADE.
I have a small trailer for the weekend, and 3 other members have agreed to come along in garb. Showing up in MakeICT shirts is also welcomed. More people are welcomed to join us for the parade and hopefully hand out candy to kids since we’re not suppose to hand out flyers…
