G FORCE has announced the date of the 3rd Annual Grizzly Flats Independence Day Parade, so get your vehicles decorated and get ready to come out and have some fun! This year's parade will leave the Fire Station on Sciaroni at 5:00 PM on Friday, July 3rd.

Kids who wish to decorate their bikes and ride in the parade with parents' permission should arrive at 4:00 PM to being decorating. Decoration will once again be provided by G FORCE, but donations of decorations are also greatly appreciated.

Parade line up will begin at 4:30 PM. All Grizzly Flats residents are invited to be in the parade (no charge) with their decorated vehicles, wagons, bicycles, scooters or just walking. The parade route is approximately one mile and will go from the fire station, down Quiet Wood to Tyler, then back to Sciaroni again.

Following the parade, "Burger" Night will actually be BBQ Chicken Night, so please join us for some of the best chicken you will ever eat.

Our community tradition of Burger Nights begins Friday, June 12th. Burger Nights are held at the Fire Station on Sciaroni with serving from 6:00pm until 7:30pm. Due to the increase in costs of Burger Night overhead, the requested donation has been raised to $5.00 per meal for adults (over 10-years-old), $2.50 for kids 3-10 and kids under 3-years-old eat free. If you want an extra sandwich with your meal, that is also $2.50. Don't ask Lyle to change the music. See you there (Jackie Lou and I are the ones who take your donation and give you your bun. A full Burger Night schedule is here.

Grizzly Pines Needs Your Help!

Grizzly Pines School is asking the community and particularly the parents of Grizzly Pines students to help with the annual Burger Night Bake Sale this year. Funds generated by the Bake Sale go toward necessary classroom supplies and extracurricular classes for the students. Recent and upcoming budget cuts have made this income vital to our school.

The school needs donations of baked goods each week. These items may be dropped off between 5:30-6:30 at the Grizzly Pines table at the fire station each week. They should be pre-packaged/wrapped.

We also need trustworthy people to help man the bake sale table each week. If you are able to help, please contact Robin Kelley at rkelley@pioneer.k12.ca.us.
