Minnesota Winter: a time of excitement where we marvel at all that sparkly white stuff on the ground and huddle together for warmth while attempting not to freeze our tails off. Wolves and coyotes roam the frozen landscape while small woodland creatures go into hiding. But there is strength in numbers. It’s a time to come together for friends, family, and…
The Saint Paul Winter Carnival Parade! Join MNFurs as we take part in the 2016 King Boreas Grande Day Parade on January 30th. Whether you have a fursuit, ears and tails, or no suit at all, all are welcome. Bring your enthusiasm, bring your spirit, and if you aren’t suiting… bring a jacket (it helps).
As always, ALL participants will be required to sign and submit a waiver prior to the event. Forms will be available at meets and also from events@mnfurs.org. Forms MUST be handed in/submitted no later than the day of the parade. Please enter “Minnesota Furs” for the organization name.
Parking & Directions:
The main event parking for participants is in the Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) parking lot. Please note that spaces here will be limited, so please do your best to carpool and/or be prepared to find alternate parking if you arrive later. You can reach the lot by taking Jefferson St from 7th St.
360 S Colborne Street
Saint Paul, MN 55102
Changing:
Great news! SPPS is once again granting us use of one of their conference rooms as a staging area. Enter using the doors on the south side of the parking lot. We don’t know which room we’re in (yet).
Transportation:
We still need to arrange some kind of transportation from the end of the parade in downtown Saint Paul (near the Excel Center) back to the start about 2 miles away. Anyone with vehicles capable of transporting a larger amount of people, please let us know if you’d be interested in helping.
REMINDER:
You do need to sign up for it – you need to contact events@mnfurs.org if you still need a form.
