Dear Mr. Rohloff:
Re: parade Alternate route if Main Street is not complete by November 11th.
I would request as an alternate route for the 28th annual Holiday Parade in the event Main Street is not open by Nov
11th the following route:
Again we would set up staging area on Pioneer Drive and head West on 6th Street, turn South on Oregon Street to
South Park Ave and then turn West on South Park and end parade at the corner of South Park and Ohio.
If you have any questions or comments relative to this request, please feel free to contact me at 303.2265, ext. 29 or

Dear Mr. Rohloff:
On Saturday, 4 December 2010, Christine Ann Domestic Abuse Services, Inc. (CADASI) will hold
its eighth annual Race for the Light fun run /walk to raise money to support its mission. This
family- oriented event's highlight is the Oshkosh Celebration of Lights in Menominee Park, a
portion of the course winds through the lights in the park giving the participants a different view of
this wonderful exhibit.
CADASI is requesting the permission of the City of Oshkosh to use portions of Broad Street,
Irving Avenue, Hazel Street, Siewert Trail, Pratt Trail, Merritt Avenue, Lakeshore Drive and
Washington Avenue from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm on 4 December 2010.
The course begins at the Boys and Girls Club Teen Center on Broad and heads north to Irving,
turns east on Irving to Hazel, then north on Hazel to Siewert Trail. At Siewert Trail the course
turns into the boat launch parking lot and enters Pratt Trail and proceeds through the Celebration
of Lights. The course exits Menominee Park at the intersection of Merritt and Linde turning east
on Merritt to Lakeshore Drive and then west on Washington to Broad turning north on Broad and
finishing in front of the Boys and Girls Club. A map of the course is enclosed.
Last year we set an all -time record of eight hundred fifty -six runners. For 2010 we are
anticipating the support and participation of over one thousand (1,000) runners.
