A phrase that describes the parade is, "Some in rags, some in tags, some in velvet gowns." According to the Chamber of Commerce: :"Whether you're part of this large grand parade, or a spectator, the spirit of the day is sure to capture your mood. Marching bands, queens, business floats, children, adults, and hobos all come down the streets in one long line and share the fun that only a Hobo Convention can provide."
