EPHS Columbus Day Parade

Here is the tentative itinerary for the Columbus Day Parade.

9:45 Call time at EPHS, change into uniforms
10:15 Leave for Chicago
11:00 Arrive Downtown, walk to holding area for parade
(we’re #12)
12:30 Parade starts
1:00* Done with parade, load busses
1:45* Arrive back at EPHS, unload and change.

*These times depend completely on parade flow. The parade is only a couple blocks long, but we don’t yet know how quickly we’ll be finished. I will encourage students to call home when we load busses downtown for an ETA.
