Riders will stage at VF Outlet Mall parking lot.  After a safety briefing the procession will proceed to the National Vietnam War Museum parade grounds, led by LEO, approximately 1.8 miles.  The arrival of the procession marks the opening of the ceremony.  A large rider turnout and big flag bikes are encouraged and would make the event a success.  Upon arriving at the parade grounds, riders will dismount and immediately man the flag line surrounding the speakers’ podium area.  Anyone not wishing to participate in the procession may stage at the parade ground in accordance with part 2 instructions.
