Near the Western fair Grounds
Marshall (and others),
The fun starts to form up in the late morning near the little park at the corner of Dorinda Street and Dorinda Avenue - both a block or three northeast of the Fair grounds. There is lots of parking at the big factories in the area - but the bestest ones are taken by early birds!
By 10:30 there will be marching bands, WW1 troops, all manner of military vehicles and all manner of stuff - all being marshaled into a well choreographed spectacular parade. Expect many flags, drums, and that sort of thing - all in seasonably cool weather - perfect for parading in an old truck.
The guy with gas money will seek you out to thank you for coming out.
It all gets underway just before noon - but could leave as early as 11:30 (they don't tell me everything).
