Budweiser Clydesdales Parade Cancellation

Adams beverage has just released the following about Saturday's parade:

Sad news - it’s looking like the brutal heat tomorrow is going to prevent the horses from appearing the way we planned.

We are trying to work out a way to have 1 horse come by the city hall at about 3:30 or 4pm.

That is to say, we can’t have a parade.
