Team Challenge!
We're hoping to get a BBC contingency there tomorrow and would love to show Alpenrose how much we appreciate them with a great OBRA turnout.
Chat with your fellow team mates and encourage participation! We really can WOW them!
See you at 9:15.

Below is information on the Beaverton Celebration Parade that the Alpenrose people have asked me to find bike riders for. I would go myself but we are doing the Masters Championships. If you are not riding the Masters it would be great if you could go to Beaverton, ride in the parade and promote both Alpenrose Dairy and the Alpenrose Velodrome.

Hello Mike,
Thanks so much for finding riders for the parade!! We had so much fun at the Multnomah Village Parade on Saturday and I'm sure everyone will have a blast this Saturday as well! The complete list of parade info is below for you to send to the cyclists that will join us. Our entry number is FG 61 ...very important to know. We will be meeting at Fir Grove Elementary around 9:15am and they will begin moving entries to the parade route at 9:45 with the parade starting at 10am. We will be there much earlier to get the animals and wagons in place but the cyclists do not need to be there for all of that.
Thanks so much! Hope to see you at the track on Sunday.
Take care,
Tracey Cadonau McKinnon
