The Good Cheer Food Bank invites children and their parents or guardians to dress as a healthy food item and march with them in the Island County Fair Parade, Saturday morning, August 21st. Every costumed adult, teen, and child (along with parent/guardian) in the Good Cheer parade group will receive a free admission pass to the Fair that day, plus a gift certificate for $10 good at Good Cheer Thrift Stores.

The 2009 Good Cheer Parade Group

There were a wide variety of costumes at last years parade. Here again is an opportunity to show your creativity and support a good cause.  Many people look for our group in the parade, and the kids love being cheered on as they show support for our community food bank.

Participants should meet in costume for the parade at 9 a.m. in front of Good Cheer Thrift Store in Langley.
