Great Activity to get Visablity for Scouting in Arlington. 4th of July Parade


The 48th Arlington 4th of July Parade

Arlington, Texas

Thursday July 4, 2013

Downtown Arlington

 

The Arlington 4th of July Association is looking for Scouts to serve as Flag Bearers/Color Guards along our parade route and to help lead Parade spectators in singing our National Anthem

 

Need: Color Guards/Flag Bearers, in uniform, spaced along the entire 2 mile Parade route. The Color Guards/Flag Bearers may be as few as 2 Scouts (this is a minimum – bring as many along as you can).  We are requesting one leader or parent and at least 2 scouts from each unit, in Class A uniform. Please bring an American flag and your unit flag.

 

When:  Thursday July 4, 2013, no later than 7:30 a.m. for check in.  Scouts will deploy along the route at 8:15 a.m.

 

Where: UT Arlington Parking lot at the northeast corner of Doug Russell Rd. and West St. Maps and more info can be found on our website, www.arlington4th.org.

 

What:  The Guards/Flag Bearers will be spaced evenly along the Parade route, while our announcing stands play the National Anthem.  The Color Guards/Flag Bearers will be in the middle of the street to serve as a focal point for parade spectators.  Each Scout should be in Class A uniform.

 

Why:  This is an opportunity to showcase your troop to more than 40,000 people while showing your Patriotic Spirit and your Scout Pride!

 

How:    Call or e-mail if you can help.

 

Thanks!:  Each participating Scout will receive a commemorative patch.
