Twin Cities Pride Parade

[General Princess (Jordan West)]

Members of Central Base will be marching in the Twin Cities Pride Parade on June 23, and EVERYONE is invited to participate! We will be marching with Costumers for a Cause, with a float and space for 45-ish walkers.

Location: Exact start point TBD, but the parade route runs along 2nd Avenue (Hennepin is closed for construction) and ends at Loring Park.

Time: The parade starts at 11:00 AM, but depending on where we are in the lineup and if any delays occur (likely), step-off may not be for several hours later. Once we know our exact starting location and place in the parade, we'll post the information.

Parking: Parking will be a challenge, so we recommend arriving downtown early, and encourage carpooling.

Blasters/blaster-type props and lightsabers are permitted. You are also free to made Pride modifications to your costume since this is more of a "casual" troop.

Other Information: We will have a float for those who can't walk and to transport bins. We will need a general headcount prior to the event, so please use the sign-up sheet and let us know if you or your bin need space on the float. In past years, there has been a long wait time prior to the start of the parade, and the weather may be hot. We will try to have a cooler for water. Please consider bringing drinks or snacks, if you can. We'll also have a pop-up privacy tent for those who wish to change at the event.
