that will include pilots, sponsors and community members. The lineup
will take place down Wyatt Avenue at 2:45 p.m., and the parade will
start at 3:30 p.m. on Kickapoo. The parade will then travel north
and turn left onto Pulaski Street, turn right onto Chicago, turn
right onto Pekin Street, then turn left onto Kickapoo Street and

and entering the festival through the main gates.This year, for
the first time, parade entries will be allowed to pass out candy and
giveaways to viewers along the route.
The chamber of commerce looks at this as a great opportunity to
showcase sponsors, pilots and the community as we begin a weekend of
fun and entertainment. The chamber encourages the community to get
involved and celebrate. To join the parade lineup, call 217-735-2385
