The St Paul City Local Access channel will be showing the entire parade on Comcast Cable in St Paul.  They also post up an archive video of the parade to YouTube.  One of us will likely post up the link once it becomes available a few days after the parade.

For sure not going to be able to march in parade now.  Probably won’t even be able to show up.

Won’t be walking the parade route, but do you need people to drive others back to the staging area?

I’m super late but I have 4-5 coming to suit if that’s ok?

This should be fine.  They will all need to fill out a waiver form which I can provide them and you will need one as well if you have not already filled one out.  E-mail [email protected] and the form will be forwarded.

Thank you!

The National Weather Service has cleared Saturday of all precipitation in St. Paul! 😀

Yes, we do! At the very least we’ll be dropping off a car or two in downtown St Paul so we can take a few people back in multiple trips, but if anyone else wants to meet us near the end of the route (I’d recommend parking across from St Paul River Centre by the Science Museum), that would be super helpful.

A quick note for anyone who hasn’t already signed a waiver: if you’re under 17, it will also need to be signed by a guardian so please have that done in advance.

Are there designated meeting points at the start and end of the route?

I’m going to repost this from last year:

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.

I don’t think it is mentioned – get there around 1 ish. The streets start getting blocked off for the parade and it makes getting to the meet up location – difficult.

Feel free to ask questions because I'm here for you!
