Just noticed the last few years that our local parades are void of any school marching bands.
When we were youngsters we participated in many small town parades.

On a side note... how pitiful have parades become in general? As a kid I remember lots of live music, marching bands, big floats that buisnesses spent a fair bit of time and money building... Now its often just a bunch of pickup trucks with pom-poms stuck to them, some guys wearing cowboy hats tossing suckers out the window. Not even worth the hastle of finding a parking spot.
