I got an email from Lorie from the Floral Hall Arts & Crafts at the Orleans County Fair in Barton, VT. They are going to attempt to have a Cadillac Parade and break the Worlds record for the largest gathering of Cadillacs. The current record is 102 and I think it can be broken. Below is some of the details that Lorie sent me. I am going to try my best to be there.
Henry M. Leland, inventor of both the Cadillac and Lincoln cars, is a native son of our fair town, Barton, VT. His family had a farm here for many years before they moved to MA.
We have a formal “Record Attempt Agreement” with Guinness for an attempt to break the existing record: A total of 102 Cadillac cars participated in a parade at the Cadillac Oldtimer Festival held in Leimuiderbrug, the Netherlands, on 18 August 2002.
We are also negotiating with Guinness to set the first ever record for the Largest Lincoln Parade at the same event which will be part of our Orleans County Fair held in August 17th through the 21st. The date and time has not been officially scheduled yet but will most likely be on Wednesday the 17th as our fair opener.
Could you please post our blog: http://vermontsocfnews.blogspot.com/ and website http://www.orleanscountyfair.net/ so anyone interested can get the latest updates and find pre-registration forms as soon as they are posted. You can also see them on FaceBook
Thank you,

Click on one of the above links and there will be a registration form. I am not sure if its up yet.
We are driving to Barton, Vermont from Columbia, South Carolina in our 2003, Crimson Pearl, Cadillac Deville. It is all shined up and ready to roll. We believe it is close to 1,250 miles and we want to help Lorie Seadale and her friends at the Orleans County Fair set a new world record.
If someone has a bigger parade we will be back in Orleans to help set another record when needed.
We will be there from Columbia, South Carolina in our 2003, Crimson Pearl, Cadillac Deville.
