Frontier Day Parade
The Alvin Rotary Club is preparing to celebrate a big event on Saturday, April 24, 2010. "Frontier Day",
our annual fun festival, is scheduled for that date. The annual Frontier Day Parade promises to be the
highlight event of the celebrations. Click on the Parade Route button on the left for a map of the parade route.
The Rotary Club's Annual Frontier Day is a tribute to Alvin area Citizens with a parade beginning
at 9:00 a.m. on the appointed date. We invite you to participate in the parade and will be honored if you
accept our invitation. In order to defray our expenses for the parade, we're asking for a $20.00 fee per
entry (per auto). Click on the Application button on the left for an application form. Please return the
entry card as soon as possible, to Edward Jones, Bill Nelson, 1601 S. Gordon, Alvin, Texas 77511 (next to
HEB gas station) along with your fee, no later than Friday, April 23, 2010, so that we can prepare a place
for you in the parade.
Last year, there were over 200 entries in the parade, and it appears there will be even more this year.
An estimated 20,000 people watched last year's parade, and this year's crowd is expected to be even greater. Frontier Day is a tradition in Alvin, and it is good family-style entertainment enjoyed by visitors from surrounding communities. Therefore, we ask you to please refrain from using water balloons and / or water
guns in any fashion.
The Parade line up begins at 7:30 a.m., Saturday at the North side of Alvin
High School football stadium parking lot. There will be Rotarians to give you a numbered place card
and direct you to your spot in the parade.
We sincerely hope you will find it possible to be our parade guest and remain as long as your
desire to enjoy the Frontier Day fun and good food.
If you have any questions about the parade, please contact:
