Verona Hometown Days Parade

Scouts (and their leaders) are invited to march in the Verona Hometown Days Parade to take place on Sunday, June 10, 2012. Scouts will march along with a decorated truck/trailer. The older scouts will likely take turns carrying the Park 549 Banner.



Sunday, June 10

Decoration at 10:30am

Parade Lineup/Scout Arrival: Between 11-11:30AM

Lineup number:   ENTRY  34  (Class A Uniforms)

Parade Begins at Noon

Class A Uniforms Required -
- All Leaders walking must be in uniform
- All Scouts walking must be in uniform
- No siblings can walk
- Parents are allowed to follow on the sidewalk if they prefer

Getting Your Scout There:
Legion St (behind Wildcat Lanes) will be the best route to our line-up location on S. Nine Mound Rd.  Plan to arrive between 11-11:30am, as there will be closed roads and plenty of traffic to maneuver.  Look for entry #34 and scout uniforms near the Legion St crossing on S. Nine Mound Rd.  This is our line-up number/location.

Picking Up Your Scout Up:
Discuss plans for meeting your Scout after they finish marching and/or at the end of the parade.  (The parade route ends near Wildcat Lanes.)  They will be looking for your at the end of the route.  Provide them with a cell phone and/or number to reach you as a precaution.  All scouts must meet/pick-up promptly after they complete marching (which will likely be before the parade actually ends).

Other Important Details:
Class A Uniforms are required for all Scouts and Leaders marching. Consider the weather-undershirts for chill, rain gear, etc.
Skateboards, scooters, Healy's, etc. are NOT appropriate.

Restroom visits (limited availability) and snacks (it will be lunch time) should be planned around the parade schedule. Water will be available.  Bring your water bottles.
