(By the way, how many of you marched last year?)

OK, I've been in contact with the parade organizers and it looks like since there won't be a float in the parade, they are NOT limiting the number of walkers (10 for a float)...
...SO whoever wants to suit-up for the torture...err, I mean parade!...PLEASE feel free to do so! Maybe Jenny (or someone) can set up a participation roster? 
Oh, I don't know if this is allowed by "The Powers-That-Be" but would it be possible for some folks to be able to hand out flyers advertising "Zoo Boo?" Some "Zoo Boo" people and the Pirates will be doing that, too. John |

Looks like I can't join you guys on this one after all. My flight doesn't get in until that afternoon. Alas.

Unfortunately I'm out for this one. Heidi is out of town, and I couldn't put the kids through a 2+ mile walking parade.

I might need to be out too. My back has been really bothering me lately and I am not sure if my fat butt could handle the two miles right now.
I'll be doing some shorter walks over the next few days to see how it's doing. |

John,
Are we marching with the pirates and Zoo Boo volunteers?

I am only a "maybe" at this point due to a bunch of grad parties in the next few weeks, so my wife and I need to have a planning session.

Hey, John! Is there a time we should aim for to be ready at our place in line?

I sorta feel like I should re-introduce myself since I've been off the boards for so long, but I WILL be at the parade in Jedi. Don't really know how
to do the re-post thingy, so...
I'll watch for the when/where/parking stuff later this week. |

Last year I think I took Snellling down to Grand. I think the lineup was on the west side of Snelling. There were plenty of people in "staff" type
t-shirts and/or golf carts directing people to their spots. As for time - since you won't have a float, and will just be marching, I would say 30 to 45
minutes prior to the start of the parade would be more than enough.
