The Ameren UE Thanksgiving Day Parade APPLICATION
The Christmas in St. Louis Parade Committee is seeking participants for the Ameren UE St. Louis Thanksgiving Day Parade, which will be held this year on Thursday, November 26th in downtown St. Louis.
We look forward to receiving your application and necessary paperwork due by Tuesday, October 20, 2009.
Every applicant will be notified of acceptance status approximately October 28th.
Please let us know why we should select your unit! This application is intended to provide the Parade Selection
Committee with information necessary to choose the most appropriate units for the parade. We regret that since the
parade length must be limited, not all applicants can be selected. Therefore, we hope that you will provide as complete a description as possible, so that we may have every opportunity to consider your unit’s merits.
If your unit is chosen, the information that you provide will be used for several purposes including publication for use
by KMOV in their broadcast as well as all interested media. Therefore, please let us know of any unique
characteristics or personalities involved with your unit so that we may feature this in our media kit and various press releases.
The Parade Selection Committee reserves the right to refuse any entry into the parade that does not depict the parade purpose or does not adhere to the policies of the organization. Parade entrants agree to abide by all rules and decisions of the organization.
Decisions of the Parade Selection Committee are final and are not subject to review by
any other body.
