Of course, the event that people most identify with Annie Malone is the annual May Day Parade. That's not surprising, considering that this event now attracts 200 floats and 100,000 spectators each year. However, the Annie Malone Parade is more than just a show. It represents our most significant fundraising effort, and the entire St. Louis community has traditionally helped to make it a success.
In recent years, our May Day festivities have expanded from a single day's celebration to an entire weekend of events. While the parade remains the cornerstone of the weekend, an evening Soiree dinner and various other events have all been added to the May Day schedule.
