If you are planning to walk with VQP, please meet at Pandora & Broad Streets by 11:30am.  The Parade begins at noon.  We are registered as a walking group, so people on foot, wagons, strollers, and kids bikes are all welcome.  Help carry our VQP banner, or wave to the crowds!
 
We will be there from 11am to claim our space at the "marshaling grounds"; to find us either look for the VQP banner or ask one of the parade officials to direct you to the space that we have been allocated.

This park is suitable for toddlers through to elementary-age children and has a variety of water sprinklers and a playground. We will reserve an area of seating - look for the rainbow windsock.
