We did this on Dec. 4. I think the parade was at 12:45 - we did it right after lunch at the Plaza. There is a popcorn cart on the right as you approach the hub, and there is a sign that says to line up for the parade. The CMs give you a sticker as they count people who are participating, then divide you into different groups. We were in the very front, right behind the lead car. Horace Horsecollar marched with us. We had little flag penants to wave. You march from the hub to the flag pole, sing "Yankee Doodle" at the flag pole, and that's the end. It was a lot of fun - DS10 enjoyed it.
