ECJ94 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 With the sad events of today, it's important to remember that most of these corps' are going to come up short of their planned fundraising goals. The average parade can pay upwards of $5,000 in appearance fees; yet all afternoon parades in the Chicagoland area were cancelled; which is appropriate considering the circumstances. Please keep these corps in mind when you are passing by donation jars at the souvie trailers or when considering which corps' fuel funds to give to, as I am sure that in addition to the mental trauma that their memberships must be going through, each of these corps just lost a large pay day.

Phantom56 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Maybe the corps will be paid, since the parades were cancelled by the cities--who must have contracted with the corps to be paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimF-LowBari Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Just thinking about all the 4th of July parades around the Baltimore area. And all the message signs on the highway that day saying “IF YOU SEE SOMETHING REPORT IT”. 🥲 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
