ROUTE
The four-mile walk route is also the route of the 2008 Grand Floral Parade, leaving from the Memorial Coliseum.  The Battle Ground High School Marching Band will lead you past nearly half a million spectators who will cheer you on as you enjoy your own “fitness parade.”  You can opt to do a two-mile portion of the course and exit and return to the formation area in northwest Portland.  Please bring your own water bottle and other equipment to take you through a two- or four-mile walking event.  There will be no water stations available on course.

PARADE VIEWING
Once you have completed the course, you will have a chance to view the 2008 Grand Floral Parade at a special Walk viewing section near SW 12th and Taylor streets.  Seating will be available on a first come, first served basis ONLY for walkers identified with a participant bib number.
