Smith Encourages Organizations to Apply to Participate in Inaugural Parade

 

 
Washington, DC – The Joint Task Force National Capital Region (JTF-NCR), which is responsible for coordinating the Inaugural Parade for the 57th Presidential Inauguration, has begun accepting applications from organizations wishing to participate in the parade. The Inaugural Parade will take place on January 21, 2013. Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) issued the following statement encouraging interested organizations in the Third District to apply:
“The inauguration of a President is not only an historic event, but also a national celebration of our democracy at work. I hope organizations, schools, bands and other groups from the Third District will have the opportunity to be a part of this celebration by applying to participate in the Inaugural Parade.”
Applications can be submitted online at: http://www.2013InaugurationParade.mil, where interested parties also can access additional information about the parade and view detailed instructions for completing and submitting their materials.
All applications will be collected and organized by JTF-NCR for review by the Presidential Inaugural Committee (PIC), which will be appointed by the President-elect. The PIC will select which organizations will participate in the parade, and applicants will be notified of the selection or non-selection in mid-December.
