IHSAA looking for classics to drive in 100th anniversary parade
The Indiana High School Athletics Association (IHSAA) is seeking old cars to drive in a 100th anniversary parade on Saturday, March 27, in downtown Indianapolis. The parade will take place between sessions at the boy’s basketball finals held at Conseco Fieldhouse.
The parade will start Pennsylvania Street, travel around monument circle and end at Conseco Fieldhouse. The IHSAA’s goal is to have a vehicle/float to represent every state championship team.
To reserve a spot in the parade, call the IHSAA at (317) 863-2575 or email info@100n100.net.
Here’s the full press release:
On “Championship Saturday,” a special 100th Anniversary Celebration Parade will make its way through downtown Indianapolis to honor a century of Hoosier high school basketball teams. The goal is to have a parade unit or float representing each year’s state championship team and to have former players and coaches from these teams participate.
The Parade, scheduled to occur between Championship sessions, will start on Pennsylvania, travel around Monument Circle and end at Conseco Fieldhouse. Each team will be recognized at various points along the parade route and will have the chance to walk the red carpet – like they do at the Academy Awards – as they enter Conseco Fieldhouse for the IHSAA Legends Reception. This promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience and thrilling conclusion to our centennial celebration, as well as a unique opportunity for a reunion of former players and coaches. For those watching, this will be their chance to see some of the great legends and star players of the past.
Complete parade details will be sent to you once your reservation is received. Additional information can be obtained online at www.100YearsIn100Days.net.
