Photo of float and costumes for Detroit's Thanksgiving Parade 2009

Andrew Norton

The Detroit Thanksgiving Day Parade is now just under three weeks away. You can see a Mother Goose float and about a dozen costume heads in this photo. I always find it to be kind of a macabre scene when you see only the heads of costumes sitting in a warehouse. Don't ask me why, I just do :).

Don't forget about Detroit's Thanksgiving Day Parade

Andrew Norton

Lost in the shuffle and national audience of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is Detroit's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The 80 year tradition of floats, bands, and balloons traveling down Woodward Avenue in downtown Detroit will be seen via television by an estimated 100 million people. A funny thing I just learned through this article in the Detroit News is that Macy's is one of the Detroit parade's 200 sponsors. So not only are they the headline sponsor of their historic New York City parade, but they also help to sponsor the Detroit parade. I am not sure if this has always been the case or if it is because they bought out Marshall Fields which bought out Hudson's which used to be based in downtown Detroit.

The parade will begin at 9:20 on Thanksgiving morning and will begin at Mack and Woodward.
