South Shore Frolics organizers urgently seeking donations for parade

The South Shore Frolics organizers are urgently seeking public and private donations to reinstate the event?s parade this summer. The parade was canceled last year when the Bay View Lions, who produce and sponsor the event, were unable to secure adequate funding to finance the parade.

The parade is scheduled for Saturday, July 13. This year marks the 64th annual Frolics event.

To date the Lions have raised 20 percent of the $30,000 required to underwrite the parade, Patty Pritchard Thompson announced today, in an emailed funding-appeal. ?The full $30K number needs to be reached no later than Thursday, February 28, for the Parade to continue! ? Thompson said.

The Bay View Business Improvement District (BID #44) matched the first $3,000.

In addition to sponsorships and donations, the Lions ask that members of the community help spread the word that funding is critical in order to save the 2013 South Shore Frolics parade.

Learn about sponsorship levels here.

For more information, contact Patty Pritchard Thompson or send your donation to:

Bay View Lions Club
Attn: Parade

Milwaukee, WI 53207

Checks are payable to the Bay View Lions Club
