We are contingent number 67 near the front of the parade.  The exact street location along Palm Canyon will be sent via text about 7:30 AM so you can more easily find the truck.  If you are coming from out of town please let us know so you can be included in the morning text message.
Please line up by 9 AM to receive flags and instructions.  The parade begins at 10 sharp.  Because we are near the front we are done well before noon.  The parade is about one mile from Tachevah to Amado.

Sunday Afternoon - Flagging at the Oscar's t-dance with DJ Mark Tarbox.
Flaggers with wristbands get free, early entrance from 2 to 3, but there is a cover charge after 3 PM and those without bands.  Please check with us at Flagging in the Desert as there are a limited number of bands.
