    I am hoping that maybe next year they break it up some and do the parade’s on different weekends for a 50 mile radius. I would love to be able to take my children to more than 1 and they all fall on the same weekend. Kind of disappointing we have to choose 1. Just my opinion but sure would be fun to be able to see Pensacola, Brewton, and Atmore !
