Grande Day Parade - parade route map

I'm reposting this information as the parade is only a few days away.

Grande Day Parade starts on 5th and Cedar, goes 3 1/2 blocks west to Washington, 1 block south to 4th St, and then 3 blocks east to Wabasha.--7 1/2 blocks total.

The parade route was also published in the Sunday, January 21, edition of the St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Harriet Island Map and Parking

Thanks to Kristi and Julie (and maybe Anne) who volunteered to be at the kid's activity tent on Harriet Island before the parade as READING DIVAS. They will be handing out cool free library stuff.

If you are planning on going to Harriet Island before or after the parade you many want to consider usig nthe free shuttle service.

Skyway map of the downtown area

Here is a map of the skyway system in the downtown area. I plan on parking somewhere on the east end of the city (maybe Union Depot parking ramp off of Kellogg) and walking to our line up area via the skyway. A more experience parade attender (from the St. Paul Clown Club) mentioned that he typically parks in the Farmer's Market lot (free, I think) and walks to the parade route because it is easier to leave the downtown area after the parade.
