Citrus Parade in Orlando

The Citrus Parade Orlando report 12-16-05
2 weeks/14 days for the Parade! It's getting even better!

In case you noted, the front site has a picture of American Idol's top 10 finalist Constantine Maroulis. The picture reads "American Idol Constantine Maroulis has been selected as Grand Marshall." Surprise? I did expected a celebrity or a sport legend to be the Parade's Grand Marshall!

In past parades, the Grand Marshall has been a sport legend. I had Football legend Vince Dooley of the University of Georgia in 2003 and Mark Ruiz the Olympic Medalist in 2004. I also had former Miss America Erika Dunlap which is returning for this year's parade. But a big celebrity like "American Idol"? Then this is getting better!

I received confirmation about the upcoming volunteer week, after Christmas Day. I will be present, decorating the floats and will post some pictures and some movie files for you to see. That is on the following Monday (After Christmas), December 26th. I doubt there is an opening available, but if you can request one, good luck! I did requested the volunteer position early this year.

Name: Sara

Do you know if we'll be able to see Constantine perform from non-VIP seats? Like on the street? Also, will there be a meet and greet or something of that nature before or after the parade? Info would be very much appreciated, please contact me via e-mail.
