NEW MEETING LOCATION THIS MONTH!
Council Chambers Arlington City Hall
101 W. Abram Arlington, TX 76010

Please send at least one representative from your parade entry to get this year’s Parade Day info! You must have this packet in order to line up on parade day!

Note from the President:

Well folks, we’re down to the wire for the 47th Annual Arlington Fourth of July Parade!

Heidi Moyer, along with her mother, grandmother, and daughter, representing four generations of Girl Scouts, will be honored as Grand Marshals in recognition of the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts of America. And congratulations to the winner of the 2012 t-shirt art contest, David S. of Nichols Jr. High. T-shirt sales benefit the local chapter of the Ulster Project and serve to promote the art curriculum in the AISD, as well as promote the Parade. Shirts can be ordered online and at the next General Meeting. They will also be available the day of the Parade in the staging area.

Note that we are moving the June General Meeting from the 3rd floor Council Briefing Room to the Council Chambers on the 1st floor. Signs will direct you to the meeting. June 21 is a MANDATORY meeting for all entries to pick up their Parade packets so they will be allowed entrance into the staging area the morning of the Parade. Don’t forget to DECORATE your parade entry! See you at the meeting and the Parade!

2012 Parade Association Service Project

The association will be collecting teddy bears to support Arlington Memorial Hospital’s Teddy Bear Clinic program, which serves local kindergarten classes. Round up new or gently loved stuffed bears and bring them to the May or June general meetings.

We will also be collecting teddy bears at the parade. For more info, email info@arlington4th.org.

And we can’t forget to announce our 2012 Grand Marshals, honoring the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts of America, Four Generations of the Moyer Family Girl Scouts
