December 11, 2009 from the Dallas hotels to Dallas City Hall and then on to the
Dallas Convention Center on foot, including a link to the sign up page for this
event. This includes a flag line at City Hall and short foot parade to
the Dallas Convention Center. All are welcome!! Also included is a
link to take you to the sign-up sheet. You may return to the sign-up
sheet to alter your information if you need to but you must do it from the same
computer where you started the survey and not erase your cookies. If you
don’t know what computer cookies are, don’t worry about them.
Just complete the brief survey and you’ll be all signed up.
Changes, additional details and other information will be posted on the North
Texas PGR web site at <a href="http://www.txpgr.org"><span style='color:#0000FD'>www.txpgr.org</span></a>.
Just click on the button for Snowball Express and all the latest
information will be there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Staging is at 8:30 AM sharp
at the hotels and at City Hall. Please refer to the web site for the
exact staging area for your hotel and allow time for rush hour traffic in
Dallas when planning your travel time. Please try and not stray too far
from the staging location or be gone for too long. The Ride Captain at
your location will be checking last minute details with Snowball Express,
transportation personnel, Law Enforcement, lead PGR personnel, etc. There
will be a briefing at your location by the Ride Captain. The procession
will pull out when Snowball Express says it is ready. This is not the
call of the Ride Captain so please be prepared!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>All PGR members and others
wishing to participate in the events at City Hall please also stage there at
8:30AM. When the busses pull up the participants will be dropped off
there for speeches, welcomes, etc. We will put up flag lines around the
area for this part of the event.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Following the speeches and
welcomes, which include military dignitaries, there will be what Snowball
Express calls a “Walk of Gratitude”. This is where all of the
participants will parade on foot to the Dallas Convention Center. We will
reestablish the flag line so that the kids and family members can walk through
the flags at the beginning of the “Walk” and we will then fall in
behind them with the flags and go with them to the Convention Center.
>From that point, the participants will go into the Convention Center where a
full day of activities and music are planned for them. Once we roll the
flags and have a final briefing we are done for the day. We should be
finished well before noon.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
