**New info from Ted 1/23/12** The information below
was copied from the parade notice I received today (Monday) Not knowing that there is no parking in the neighborhoods
mentioned I supplied some bad advice in the flier mailed this morning. My suggestion now is to park at the end
as suggested below. The Civic Center ramp will work also. Then walk down to the staging area. I guess we will tailgate at
our spot.
At this time we are unit # 68
Grand Day – Staging will take place on Cliff Street.
Directions:
Units will enter Cliff Street from St. Clair Ave. & Fort Rd. Once on Cliff Street
you will find numbered cones. Find your unit’s number and line up behind it.
All vehicles related
to participants will be located near and around Eagle Street/Parkway in the parking lot or not obstructing traffic in that
area.

*Parking is NOT permitted
in these neighborhoods – you will be towed at owner’s expense. Plan accordingly as there are several parking lots
and ramps within walking distance (Ex. Science Museum and Children’s Hospital Parking Ramps). Also, please be respectful
and considerate of the residents and properties of these Neighborhoods
