The purpose of the "Legion Riders" is to participate in ceremonies that are in keeping with the aims and purposes of the American Legion. The "Legion Riders" have provided Color Guards and Service Flag Displays for events in many cities, both within and outside of Wisconsin during the past few years. It has been both an honor and a privilege to be allowed to perfonn these duties for the various events. To show our appreciation for the men and women currently serving in our nation's military services, the Legion Riders are requesting permission to hold another parade through downtown Oshkosh. The parade will be "A Salute to Our Troops V". The parade will be held on Sunday, September 11th, 2005 and will begin at 12:00 Noon. Assembly of participants would be scheduled to begin at approximately 10:30 AM. Staging would be in the area of Court Street south of Ceape St. and in the adjacent lots. The route would be as follows: West on Otter Ave. to Main St. - North on Main St. to Irving Ave. - East on Irving Ave. to Hazel St. - South on Hazel St. to Washington Ave. - East on Washington Ave. to the American Legion. This is the same route that is used for the 4th of July parade with the exception of the last few blocks leading to the American Legion. Invitations would be open to all interested motorcyclists, many of whom would be displaying patriotic flags. Also invited to attend will be active military and veteran organization members from a number of groups. Invitations will be extended to the local Police, Fire, and Sheriff's Departments as well. The parade would be limited to vehicular traffic only, however, in order to facilitate the orderly movement of all participants. The American Legion Riders Association would be honored to help provide an opportunity for the citizens of Oshkosh to show their support of those men and women who choose to proudly wear a military unifonn of the United States of America. Thank you for your consideration. Respectfully, ~~ Roy Helms - President American Legion Riders' Association of Wisconsin 2540 Clover St. Oshkosh WI 54901 (920) 231-5310 rhelms9199@aol.com
