International Children’s Friendship Festival (ICFF) invites two children from your ethnic community to walk with ICFF in the 2019 Alaska Airlines Torchlight Parade. Ethnic Heritage Council is a partner with ICFF.
ICFF’s Guidelines for Participation in the Parade
- From each community, we would like one boy and one girl who are around 10-15 years old.
- Each child should be able to commit roughly 4-5 hours on the day of the event. This is because we need to arrive at 6:30, 1 hour before the parade begins, then walk roughly 2.5 miles in the parade. This is why we need slightly older children. Parents are welcome to walk with the children.
- The children should be wearing their ethnic costumes and carrying their country’s flags. ICFF will provide flags.
- We’ll also be providing an ICFF banner and a “Peace at Home, Peace in the World” banner for the children to carry.
If you would like to participate, please contact Lane or Sibelat and no later than July 15 with the names and emails of the participants (their parents / guardians) so that we can coordinate this with the Seafair community.
The parade is free. For more information about the Torchlight Parade:
