Are you the next Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood?

The Ladner Pioneer May Days committee is looking for the next May Days Idol and encourages local youth to register.

There are two age categories in which to compete: 12 years old and under, and 13 to 18 years.

"This is a great opportunity to experience the stage and the thrill of performing," says May Days committee co-chair Jackey Zellweger. "May Days attendees are a kind and happy bunch and so are the judges - there will be no Simon Cowells among us."

The deadline to register for May Days Idol has been extended to May 17.

Zellweger also welcomes youth to "take some pride in their ride" by signing up for the annual bicycle parade. West Coast Amusements all-day ride passes will be awarded to the best decorated bicycle in each of three categories: five years and under, six to eight years and nine years old and older. Judging takes place on Sunday, May 26 at 11 a.m.

Visit www.ladnermaydays.com for more information and to register for either event.

The second longest running May Days in the province, this year's Ladner Pioneer May Days is May 24 to 26 in Memorial Park.

The festivities begin on Friday evening with discounted midway rides for kids, while Saturday and Sunday are filled with a broad range of top-notch family entertainers and many free activities.
