First-Timer Info

While many of the participants of Parade tend to be seasoned veterans we are anticipating that a lot of the attendees at Parade 2008 will be new comers to the event and probably to the Club itself. With that in mind we have several plans in place to assist:

1) Parade 101 - Think \'Freshman Orientation\'. This is a small information session to be held in conjunction with Check-in. This will bring all Parade \'newbies\' up to speed on what Parade is all about.

2) Event Concierge Staff - We will have a central desk staffed with local members to assist everyone with the events of the day, directions, etc. during all event hours. We will also have \'roving\' Concierge Staff at all events.

3) Signage - We will have \'informational\' signage at the Concours and other major events to help everyone \'decipher\' some of the more cryptic aspects of Parade.
