Haven't herd, but it sounds like the famous Doo-Dah Parade held at OTR every year.

Great fun, too.

Yeah, that's sort of what I gathered . . . I was just curious about details. I will be attending part of the event but have to work during the day Friday and Saturday. Will be showing up to help my hubby set up on vendors row on Thursday and returning to the site after work on Saturday so I guess I'll miss the contest whatever it is.

WIN A TRIP TO THE 2009 SERA CAVE CARNIVAL

Hey Cavers,

Still not sure about attending the upcoming SERA Cave Carnival being held May 28-31 in northwest Georgia? Waiting to the last minute to register? Well maybe this will convince you....

In addition to the entertainment, bands, MardiCrawl parade, caving-oriented activities, contests, musical entertainment, 14 different vendors, fellowship, and awesome location, here is another reason to send in your registration form today.

For event registrations that have already been received and those postmarked by April 31, you are automatically entered into a drawing for a $58 gas card that you can use to travel to and from the event. We will announce the winner on May 10 and mail the gas card prior to the event. Why $58 dollar you ask. Well, this is the 58th Annual SERA Summer Caver Carnival.


Registration forms are available here:
