Calling all ages — everyone is welcome to request a flag that represents their home country or heritage, or a country they support for Parade of Nations. Signs displaying the country’s name will also be distributed.
The 2023 Parade of Nations begins at 11 a.m. on Sept. 16 at the Quincy Green in Hancock and ends at the Dee Stadium in Houghton.
Registered participants may pick up their requested flag on the day of the parade between 10 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. from the First United Methodist Church at 401 Quincy Street. The parade will then line up on the Quincy Green.
Flags can be requested online using the 2023 Flag Request Form. In the event that multiple individuals request a flag for the same nation, materials will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Additional participants are invited to join their nation on the Quincy Green to walk in the parade.
Registrations received after Sept. 9 will be considered, but are not guaranteed.
