The Ameren Missouri Thanksgiving Day Parade Application
DEADLINE TO APPLY IS OCTOBER 11, 2013.
Join us for the 2013 Ameren Missouri Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The parade will be held on Thanksgiving, November 28, 2013. As in past years, it will start in downtown St. Louis at 8:45 AM.
We are honored to have Mary Engelbreit, world renowned graphic artist and illustrator, as our Honorary Grand Marshal. In addition, we expect over 130 parade units, such as musical floats and displays, giant helium balloon figures, animal units and marching bands from around the St. Louis region. As always, Santa Claus will be present to wish everyone a Merry Christmas at the end of the parade.
We invite you to submit your application early because the deadline is October 11, 2013. With your completed application, you must submit a Certificate of Liability Insurance form so check our website under Important Documents for the form.
Like last year, KMOV-TV will broadcast the parade live. As a result, many parade participants should receive a high level of visibility during the broadcast.
We look forward to receiving your application by October 11, 2013. We will notify all applicants who are selected for the parade by October 25, 2013.
Happy Holidays to you and your families, and thank you for your interest in the 2013 Ameren Missouri Thanksgiving Day Parade.
