13. I'm interested in marching in the Veterans Day Parade.
The Phoenix Veterans Day Parade is an annual tradition for the Hamilton American Red Cross Club. The parade is always on Veterans Day, November 11 and begins at 11:11. Share your respect by marching in the parade and saluting our veterans. To participate, you will need to sign up for the parade and complete the Liability Agreement/Parental Consent form.
Club members meet at 9:00 AM at the North Baptist Parking lot (5757 N Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ). At 11:30 the American Red Cross begins marching. The parade ends at 1:30 at Indian Steele Park near the Veterans Administration Hospital (650 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix, AZ). You will need to provide your own transportation to and from the parade (please arrange a ride to pick you up at the park between 1:30 to 2:00).
If you plan on parking at the parade, go early. There is no parking form for the event so everyone who parks at the staging area will need to arrive early in order to park in the northeast parking lot.
