You were right...
I was busy getting married! I'm now a taken man! Anyways...yeah Rob handled a lot of the issues last year regarding the parade but in the end I think it more or less became a gaggle.
Here is the information I can provide so far in regards to the parade for D*C 09:
It is held on Saturday, Sept. 5 at 10:00 a.m. and you have to have a D*C membership in order to participate. Pre-con parade registration is recommended but not required. There is an easy registration form to sign up on the website and I can take care of registering us once I know we have a definitive # of people showing up in armor to march in the parade.
According to the official D*C parade site "Banners, flags, streamers, floats, decorated vehicles, music and other noisemakers are allowed and encouraged. Show off your alter ego! Be creative! Have fun!" So if anyone has any ideas let us know.
I'm still trying to get a definitive # of who is coming to D*C this year and it's only 99 days away. I want us to be better organized than last year when I finally ran into the 405th group the final evening of Dragon*Con. Talk about a total bummer!
If you have any questions respond here or send me a private message and I'll provide as much information as I can.
