I-NOMA members, friends and family: I-NOMA is participating in the annual Bud Billiken parade to celebrate another successful year of Project Pipeline! Alongside our Project Pipeline students , volunteers and executive board, we invite members to join us as we march during the parade!
We're celebrating with a Cookout following the parade with food and fun at Washington Park. We will start the annual cookout at Washington Park around 11:00 am.
Please RSVP here to let us know you're coming, if you're bringing anything, if you can assist with setup, etc. BYOB. We will also be using the website RSVP as the day of contact list, so please, complete your RSVP there. Details below!
I-NOMA is Spot #115 along the parade route. I-NOMA leaders will be at the staging area before 9am to confirm our spot with the parade marshals. If you are planning to walk with I-NOMA we recommend meeting us at the staging area by 10am at the latest to get settled. Due to our location in the queue of the parade, we anticipate having to wait at least an hour before we walk. Members joining us along the parade route are encouraged to bring their own chair or blanket to sit while waiting. We will have some carts to carry supplies during the parade but please be prepared to carry whatever you bring just in case.
REMINDER: We will not be using a personal vehicle for this years parade and will be walking with our banner and passing out flyers. Please wear comfortable shoes and hydrate!
I-NOMA will simultaneously be setting up for our annual cookout starting at 11am. As our members and allies march along the parade, we will begin the cookout at 11am and adjourn by 5pm. We anticipate parade walkers won’t be able to join the cookout until 2pm.
We are still looking for members who can assist with setup, grilling and staging for the event. Please RSVP at the link above if your able and we will use the RSVP information for day-of contact.
