Friday's Class of 2011 procession

<p>Does anyone have an idea how long this procession will be? Just trying to re-arrange my schedule - is it usually an half hour? an hour? thx</p>

<p>Also, is it as simple as going to the Academy website, Parents Page and clicking on that link? Is there any download we need to do ahead of time? I don't want to miss it. </p>

<p>Is it a one-time only deal? Will there be reruns?</p>

<p>I can't provide any insight, as last year it was cancelled due to the rain.</p>

<p>I'm no help either as they didn't have this for c/o 2009. I'd say the thing would last 30 minutes or so?? </p>

<p>MMAMom, try clicking on the link now. It won't connect to anything but you'll see if your Windows Media comes up or if you get a message that you need a player. It will stream live through your player. You can just click it off if it comes up then you'll know that you'll be ok. Also, I would give another one of those grand guesses that they will go ahead & post still photos of it as well. They did the last two years.</p>

<p>its not a procession, it's a parade!!!! We love parades!</p>

<p>Actually the plebes did emerge last year, in yellow rain slickers, for a brief march past the admiring multitudes. The rain slickers were less than dramatic but you could tell they were pleased to have support from the families who did manage to attend.</p>

<p>I heard that the candidate's Color Guard got a rare comploment from LCDR Ragin
at the rehearsal yesterday. Here's hoping they can repeat today when it counts</p>

<p>I'm seeing them practice live now at 2:48 pm EDT, but no sound yet, hope that is to come too.</p>

<p>I'll see about 2 minutes of practice, then black. Hit Pause/Play.</p>

<p>Are you guys experiencing he same? If I have a network/software issue, I'd sure like to know it before 4:00pm to start diagnosing it.</p>

<p>yes screen went black for me and hubby and another mom too Zonk.. You'll be okay!</p>

<p>are you all hearing anything? i have picture but no sound?</p>

<p>Yes, my screen went back to black.</p>

<p>well at least i DID have picture. its black again!</p>

<p>ok...at least they test it before going live...</p>

<p>Now when they say 14:00 they mean 14:00...hummm</p>

<p>No fair peeee-king. :D</p>

<p>omg - my keyboard is soaked with tears. How proud are WE??????</p>

<p>Just wish we could have been there.....</p>

<p>Why was the one band member in blue? Also, why didn't they wear their whites?</p>

<p>Awwww. They did well, and I'm sure are looking to run just a BIT longer that Class of 2010 did -- 5.5 miles w/supe should do it. </p>

<p>And happy to see my boy... or course, I "saw" him in like 8 different platoons.. Hmmmm, Maybe ONE of them was him. ;)</p>

<p>But the next time I watch one of these, I'm going to have to take Drammamine first -- sorta like watching MY home movies. :D Very thrilled they made it possible for us to watch. Thanks Admin!</p>

<p>That was great! Next best thing to being there.</p>

<p>Chances are that one member does not have khakis issued yet. Probably a size/availability problem. You'll see the whites on parents weekend. Just one more reason to go.</p>
