**Marching details**
PARKING:
There is no parking at the parade start; participants can take a shuttle from the High School or be dropped off at the Pleasant Street Rotary (Marret Rd – Follen Rd – Pleasant St. Rotary).
TIMING:
The first shuttle leaves the High School at 11:45 am; the last shuttle leaves at 1:30 pm.
Units may begin checking in at 11:45 pm. All units must be checked in by 1:15 and in place by 1:30. The Parade starts *promptly* at 2. I’ll be getting there around 12:30 with various puppets in tow.

They have them at the start and along the route.

Out of town on Patriot’s Day? You can still help! Make giant puppets: Staple Tyvek, sew, or paint giant vegetables! Come to an East Lexington garage from 2-6 pm on Sunday, March 28 to make the biggest tomato, carrot, pea, beet or ear of corn of your life–or flowers! Or bees! Children are welcome with adult supervision. E-mail Meg Muckenhoupt at megmuck at gmail dot com to RSVP with your choice of vegetable.
