Rainier Round-Up Days Parade Application for 2018

Pinewood Derby Community Races 2017

This year the Cub Scouts #307 will be having a “Pinewood Derby” after the Rainier Round-up Days Parade.  This race is open to the public & is for people of all ages.  

They’ll have a Rainier Round-up Days Vendor booth, where anyone can sign up to have their car in the Pinewood Derby.  The entry fee is $2.00 for the race.  All money raised from this event will go towards helping the pack buy a new race track for their derby races.

Thank you for supporting our Scouts!

Calling All Vendors & Crafters!!! (Updated Application)

Dear Vendor,

You may be wondering why the vendor application for Rainier.  I sent out applications in May or so but since then, for various reasons we have turned over sponsorship to the City of Rainier, which this application reflects.  If you have already sent in your application - would you mind filling this one out and bringing it when you come?  If you haven't yet filled it out we still have plenty of room to get you in.  Things will still be handled pretty much the same.  I will still be in the trailer to oversee so you are looking at the same setting and still the fourth weekend at the Round Up.  Hope to see you there.

Thank you,

Rainier Roundup Days Vendor Applications Being Accepted

Dear Vendor,

Rainier Roundup is just around the corner from August 26th to 28th  with the main parade day being on the 27th.  We will again have vendors  row.  Setup on the evening of the 25th or morning of the 26th.  

 Application attached.  (Below)

I have attempted to set a fill in application that you can fill in, print off, sign, add check drop in the mail.

City permit is only if you don't have a business permit with the city of Rainier.  You will need a temporary business permit with the city but just add it to the vendor permit and we take care of it for you.

Hope this application works.  For now it is only in Microsoft word.  Hope to have it in Adobe in the next couple of days.  Let me know if you have  trouble with it.

Thank You,
Karen Creamer

Rainier Round-Up Days Parade

My husband, George, told me that the Rainier Round-up Days Parade had 4 or 5 floats.  No big deal, right???  WRONG!!!  This was better then the Daffodil Parade.  This is Small Town America in ACTION!!!  I am still impressed with this parade & the small community of Rainier.

Rainier Round-Up Days Parade was fabulous!  Main Street was lined up with people for blocks - on both sides - several people deep to watch the parade!  The people who weren't in the parade, were watching it.  We had over 44 groups in the parade - including all of the football players & cheerleaders from Rainier Public Schools, a fire & logging truck.  There here dozens of motorbike & ATV riders!  

The photos below go from the start to the finish of the parade: 

My grandson, Sean Thorning, wore the Rainier Lions Club mascot costume on the winning Bluegrass Pickin' Party Float.  Pat (our son) drove the red truck that hauled this float.
