Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon October 17, 2002 The 2002 Rez Car Parade T t was a chilly drive on Sat urday morning for Boo Boo Blodgett, but it was worth it. Blodgett's car - a 1977 Cordova - has automatic win dows, but the windows no longer roll up. In fact the Cordova - a luxury car in its day - also has no hood, among other problems. On the drive into Warm Springs from his home at Sidwalter Flats, Blodgett had a flat tire, needed a jump-start and ran out of gas. He arrived on Indian Time for the Rez Car Parade, just in time to take first place. He won $50, a tarp to serve as a new hood, floor mats, and assorted other car products. "His is a genuine Indian car," said Captain Moody, who helped organize and judge the Third Annual Rez Car Parade. Taking second place in the competition was Denise Picard, whose teal-colored Camaro was conspicuous for its passenger side window, which was actually just a sheet, as the glass one had been broken out. Taking third place in the pa rade was Tillie Moody, who was driving her powwow van, fully loaded in preparation for the Burns powwow. Fourth-place went to Noney Garrison, driv ing a rez pickup with rez dog. "A true rez pickup needs a rez dog," said Charlotte Herkshan, parade organizer and judge. Following the parade, held Oct. 12, the group of partici pants gathered for an early lunch at the Elmer Quinn Park. The lunch featured excellent home made potato soup by Char Herkshan. Herkshan started the Rez Car Parade three years ago, as a re sponse by local residents to the Columbus Day holiday. The spirit of the parade is one of humor and indepen dence. "It was started to bring some laughter," said Captain Moody. The official scoring card, used for judging the parade en tries, includes the following criteria: ....

Below, Captain Moody, an organizer and judge of the parade entries, is ready to give the first-place cash award. The money came in a "water-proof reusable wallet," also known as a plastic ziplock bag. Missing window, 5 points. Mismatched tires, 7 points. Use of duct tape, 6 points. Missing hood, 4 points, Missing bumper, 3 points. Another factor is uniqueness, from "looks normal" to "one of a kind." And the overall ve hicle body, from "ready for sale" to "ready for the junk yard." Noise is also a factor, from "quiet as a mouse" to "loud as a tank." Warm Springs Forest Prod ucts Industries provided the prize money. Other prizes were contributed by Ron and Viola Govenor, Les and Perthina White, Leland "Chief" Thomp son family, and "Lukameen Queen's" family. v. r 4 U-,' 3CT 'Vj&a ... i- ,.x muffin )r " f S' '"' i f Happy birthday wishes...
