  There are many ways you can get involved. We will need many volunteers all along the route. Please contact  your local Chamber of Commerce, Mayor's Office or School and ask if they have received their information packet.    
  Here are a few ideas for your community. These are just to get you thinking. We are sure that you can come up with something even better.   If you need ideas or help to determine how to do an event, just ask. We would love to work with your community to put you on the map. Time is running out so if you want to do something, let me know. Email me at woody@gars66.com
