Volunteers dressed in blue, white or gold wanted for aerial photo of 'Human 100' and to walk in parade for Christmas in the City

By Billie Owens

As part of the city's ongoing Centennial celebration, there is going to be an aerial photograph taken of the "Human 100." The city is calling for 500 volunteers to stand "in cheery formation dressed in festive blue, white or gold wintry wear!"

This crowd shot in the form of the number 100 will take place at Austin Park on Friday, Dec. 4th, within lineup forming at 6:15 p.m.

An additional volunteer opportunity in celebration of the Centennial will take place immediately following the Human 100 photo shoot.

All will get to walk alongside the Centennial Cake in the Holiday Parade that kicks off this year's Christmas in the City festivities. There's one condition: Participants must be wearing blue, white or gold to be in the parade!

The route is along Jefferson Avenue and walkers will get chocolate coins to toss to rapt and merry parade watchers.

In case you missed it Brian the 2nd paragraph pretty much explains what the "Human 100" is... and there's a phone number provided in the last paragraph for anybody with questions.

Glad I could help, no thanks necessary!

Brian, if you attend please come up and introduce yourself.
Why ? Because we are neighbors, Batavians. Just maybe we might have a dialogue ... about what's good and what's wrong with our city. Who knows we might even come up with a plan or two.
Looking forward to meeting you.

There ya' go, Brian.
If you attend, just walk up and introduce yourself to Brenda.
I'm guessing she'll be one of the (hoped for) 500 volunteers standing in cheery formation dressed in festive blue, white or gold wintry wear!

Shouldn't be TOO hard to pick her outta that crowd - ;)
