St. Patrick's Day Parade Details:
π We will begin lining up at 9:30 AM in the Ameren Parking lot (on the corner of Main and Macon). The parade starts at 11:00 AM sharp, but we do group pictures, distribute candy to be thrown, and give out general guidelines before. It's better to come closer to 9:30 than 11:00.
π Weather looks to be in the low 50's, so a tad colder than years past. No rain in the forecast, but please plan for the temperature accordingly.
π You CANNOT park in the Ameren parking lot. Park on a side street and walk over. They're more heavily enforcing this now.
π PLAYERS, please wear your BLUE jerseys (unless you have a green St. Patricks Day themed one). Parents and siblings, please either wear a DYHA jersey, or BLUE or RED. We want our DYHA colors to stand out in the sea of green so we're noticeable to everyone!
π Please bring any DYHA flag or banner you may have! We want to stand out!!
π There is no float, so if you're participating, be prepared to walk or rollerblade the entire way. Strollers and wagons are permitted, just know there is no float to ride on for our littles. If you haven't been before, most of our DYHA athletes will rollerblade.
π DYHA is providing the candy, but if you'd like to donate any please reach out or bring it Saturday. I'll have plastic bags, but if you have a bucket or bag you'd like to walk with to distribute candy, please bring that as well.
π We've always had a WONDERFUL turnout for this event and it's a great time. The kids love it! If you haven't signed up, it's not too late! Please fill out the sign-up genius so I know how many to expect.
