Inauguration Day Activities

Inauguration Day Activities include the Inaugural Parade and activities surrounding it. They are all day and primarily outdoor activities. Your responsibilities may include ushering, ticket taking, distributing flags, picking up litter and cleaning off stands. They can also include service at VIP, Dignitary and White House Stands, and swearing-in events.

Scouts may be asked to participate in other Inaugural Special Events. These activities may take place at any time before or after the Inauguration Day Activities. Special Events may necessitate last minute notification.
