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.
