4th Annual Bike Decorating Contest to Take Place in North Belle Vernon
Decoration Day, as it was originally called, or Memorial Day, as we call it today, has always been a very special day in our Mon Valley small towns and communities as we gather together and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our nation and our very way of life.
This year on Memorial Day, The Good Ol’ Days Vacation House Rental in North Belle Vernon will host its 4th annual Memorial Day bike decorating contest and will open the opportunity for ALL patriotic Americans of ALL AGES to decorate their bikes, trikes, wagons, scooters, even wheelchairs to demonstrate their appreciation and support for those who have paid the ultimate price as our true heroes.
This little token of patriotism - participating in parades and demonstrating a love of our country - is the way we used to do it in those good ol’ days, so get your grandma and grandpa to show you how they did it back in those days and join us on Monday, May 29 at the Belle Vernon American Legion Post 659 parking lot at 9 a.m.
Please call 724-331-3654 to register your entry or email your entry to: Melanie@Nostalgicguesthouse.com.
Judging will take place at 9 a.m. with awards for Most Original, Most Attractive, and Most Patriotic. Prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the wreath laying and memorial service at the BV Cemetery.
All participants will receive a voucher for a free Dairy Queen ice cream cone that can be used at the North Belle Vernon Dairy Queen on Memorial Day. Get out your red, white and blue and come out!
