PCA Parade
This is our first Parade. It is interesting how those who arrive after Sunday are treated as pariahs.
We had lots of trouble picking up our pre-reg info (could't get it at all Tuesday evening and almost didn't get it Wednesday), and missed a Wed event due to not having the material. It also wasn't possible to add a person to my car for the drives as there is no mechanism in-place to do so.
You would think that attendees would be treated better than that no matter what day they came in.

The bottom line is, the volunteers that donate their time to make Parade an enjoyable event for all do a great job but, there comes a point where the entrants must also be flexible and respect that indeed the workers are volunteers that have also paid to enjoy parade.
Next year I would suggest that if circumstances prevent you from registering on time you let us know in advance and we will try, within reason to help you out..... still remember we are volunteers. Hope the rest of your week was enjoyable.
I think your comments area little selfish.
And, Yes, we are enjoying the drives, and the people. The area is scenic, the weather great, and the food excellent. Everything has been well-planned except what I mentioned.
