come first serve. The parade of flags will begin at 4:00 pm at the Halladay Building. Students participating in the parade of flags will need to meet at the ISSS in Halladay 104 no later than 3:45 pm to pick up their flag. We will leave from the Halladay
Building around 4:00 pm and conclude the parade at the RSC around 5:00 pm. The route is a longer route and multiple students may partner to carry the flag for the event. </span><span style="font-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
