Inaugural Parade Participants  

  

Congratulations are in order for a couple Iowa youth music groups. The Colts Drum and Bugle Corps of Dubuque and the Isiserettes Drill and Drum Corps of Des Moines have been selected to perform in the 2009 Inaugural Parade. The parade starts at the steps of the Capitol and ends at the White House. It’s a great opportunity for these young people from across Iowa to visit the nation’s capital and to represent Iowa. I always enjoy when groups of young people come to my office so I hope they have time to stop by and get a tour of the Capitol while they are in Washington.
