Thank you so much for coming to watch the St. Patrick's Day Parade Run in Downtown St. Louis. We appreciate you clicking here to give us some input on the parade. We really want to continue to put on a fun and memorable parade for the people of St. Louis to help us honor our Irish heritage.
To that end, we would like to make sure we are doing our best on what we can control. So we ask that you please take some time to answer the following questionnaire about the parade - it will take you less than 10 minutes. We have partnered with a local business, One Source, A Marketing & Research Company, to help us understand how we did on this event and what we can do better next year.
Please be assured that your responses will remain confidential. The folks at One Source tell us that responses from each person will remain completely anonymous. So please be honest and tell us what you really think.
Thanks for your input and for your attendance in the St. Patrick's Day Parade for 2013!
Sincerely,
Joe Milligan, Parade Director Susan Morton, Parade Chairperson St. Patrick's Day Parade Organizing Committee |
