Watch for your colleagues in the 2016 Golden Days Grande Parade on Saturday, July 23! UAF’s contribution will include the UAF Fire Department, the UAF Geophysical Institute, the UAF Community & Technical College, KUAC, Facilities Services and walkers from units across the campus. The parade begins at 10 a.m. from the Carlson Center and will wind its way for 2.7 miles through downtown Fairbanks. Help us celebrate our love of blue and gold!

Parade participants:
If you’re driving one of the UAF vehicles in the parade, please be at the Carlson Center by 8 a.m. for line-up. We will need to have our entire parade contribution ready-to-go by 8:30 a.m. for judging.

If you’re walking in the parade, you must arrive by 9:30 a.m. to get positioned before the parade begins at 10 a.m.

If you haven’t already submitted your UA liability form to amhartley@alaska.edu, please bring it with you. If anyone under 18 will join you, please also bring a parental consent form. Representatives will collect last-minute forms at the parade line-up.

There will be no parking at the Carlson Center for walkers. Please park at Ryan Middle School and take the free shuttle to the parade line-up. When the parade ends at the intersection of Noble Street and Airport Way, a shuttle will be stationed at the Co-op Market Grocery & Deli parking lot to transport parade participants back to Ryan Middle School.

UAF is entry number 64 in the parade.
