Parade -route change wasn't planned By Scott Hligndorff Vandals - wreck car left in ditch Expositor Editor The Seaforth Lions Club is still not certain why the parade route 'suddenly ,,changed bypassing a block of spectators: Lions . Club . member Marlen :.Vincent said they think it may' have been a miscommunication between themselves and the.OPP.' That may. have - led officers to direct: the parade floats off Main Street i0 Franklin Street' and not .Duke Street. the traditional .route. That route takes floats to the' Seaforth and. Di'rri t_ Community, Centres parking lot where floats can, gather and disembark. •.However.. Vincent -said the unexpected alteration to the route -left participants nut sure of where to go to . disassemble from. the • parade and created sortie confusion for participants . and spectators. ' ' Spectators from th Franklin to Duke- Stree block had to rush down Main Street itt order not to miss what Vincent said was one of the best parades the Lions Club has seen. -One of the.Club's parade organiidrs;, Heather VanDorp. said they apologize for the confusion and want to make 'sure it doesn't happen again next • year. , That parade is already scheduled for a week later, on Nov, 30 and should return to its traditional route. "The bands have already been invited balk;" said Vincent. • - VanDorp said they' were pleased with the turnout in both floats and spectators. While they don't have a physical count because many entries arrive without tilling out entry forms. she said. there were more than 50 entries included five bands and three majorette groups. "It was good to see so many people out," said VanDorp. Within two hours of abandoning a • vehicle stuck in the• snow in a Tuckersmith Township ditch., someone smashed out the windows' and kicked in the panels of the cat causing more than $5.000 in damage. The- car. a 1996 Chevmlet Cavalier. had been left stack in the snow and was discovered by an officer at 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 26 at the. intersection t )f London Road and Short Hom Road.
