Miss America 2009 Katie Stam will participate in
one of Washington's fondest traditions, as
Southwest Airlines presents the 2009 Parade of
the National Cherry Blossom Festival this
Saturday, April 4. The parade march travels
along Constitution Avenue between 7th and 17th
Street, passing
the Washington Monument and The White House.
Katie will be among the celebrities to greet
over 100,000 spectators. Loved by all ages, this
parade is in its 97th year and celebrates the
3,000 Cherry Trees in full bloom that were a
gift to the people of Washington from Tokyo in
1912.
Giant inflatable balloons, marching bands, and
performers will burst down Constitution Avenue
in an energy-filled spectacle of music and
showmanship seen only once a year during the
National Cherry Blossom Festival. Miss America
2009 Katie Stam will be singing
"Route 66."
