Questions? Contact: Mr. Nelson
Details Include:
Parade begins at 5:30 p.m.
Arrive at McDowell parking lot at 4:45 pm, located on the southeast corner of Main St. and 6th St. Meet Mr. Nelson outside the tent on the side lawn to receive your banner, pole, line up number and location.
When you receive your banner and pole, please take it to the assigned Parade Entry location. EVEN IF THE ENTRY IS NOT THERE YET, PLEASE STAY AT THAT LOCATION.
The Parade route starts at 6th Street and ends at 4th Avenue
It is important to keep a reasonable pace. Please do not follow too closely to the unit in front of you and stay within a reasonable space in front of the entry you are representing. To avoid large gaps, please do not get too far out in front of your entry.
When you reach the end of the parade, please take your banner to the Yurs Funeral Home Parking Lot on the right, it's the southwest corner of Main & 5th Avenue. Volunteers will be at the site to collect your banner. A Troop 13 Adult Leader will also be there to check you out and to verify parent pick ups.
Please be sure to dress properly for the weather (if possible - wear something Scouting on the outside layer - i.e. Class "A", Troop Sweatshirt, Troop Fleece, etc.). If you like, there usually is hot chocolate and treats at St. Charles History Museum located at 215 E. Main when you are finished. It's a nice place to warm up and watch the rest of the parade.
While the Mystery Trip has been temporarily postponded due to reasons of mystery - we are replacing it for now with a 24-Hour Electronic / Games Cabin Campout / Lock In.
Join us on 12/3 - 12/4 at MacQueen Forest Preserve for 24-Hours of indoor electronics / games and fun.
Wreath delivery day is this Saturday, November 19th, at the Gray Willows barn. ALL SCOUTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE THERE! We need adults too! We will meet at 7:45 am to unload the truck, sort products, pick orders and load cars. We have fine-tuned the process so all will go smoothly and quickly but ONLY IF EVERYONE IS THERE! As a reminder, all orders MUST be picked up on Saturday as we do not have storage available. If you cannot pick up your order, you MUST make arrangements for another Scout to get it for you. The forecast calls for chilly weather, so please dress for the conditions as we will be outside for a few hours.
