INSTRUCTIONS

Our meeting place will be at the obelisk, corner of Elizabeth and Bathurst Streets, where wristbands to enter the Parade will be distributed from the paid, Registration of Participants.  We will then build and decorate the Float, in our line-up position and have a rehearsal, before the Parade starts at 7:45 pm.

Our Float is expected to enter the Parade route at approximately 8:30 pm.  After the Parade, help must be quickly given to dismantle the Float, so that our truck can return its hired contents to Darlinghurst (Buzz Speakers) and then be returned to Alexandria (Bunnings).  Participants will be able to catch a bus on Anzac Parade or walk to the Party or watch the rest of the Parade.

Participants are encouraged to wear their Club uniform during the Parade, in order to present uniformity, as a significant image of our Float and the Mardi Gras Theme. Comfortable shoes are highly recommended.  There will be room to store back-packs, water bottles etc in the truck. The Timetable below provides a summary of tasks on the day.  Team Sydney is convinced that you will experience an exciting, memorable and fun Mardi Gras 2016!

Happy Mardi Gras !!!
