As early as 5 AM, people from other towns and cities and tourists from faraway arrived at the town. They sat by the street to await the arrival of the parade. At 10 AM, the parade started from the square in front of the Crawford School and set off to Main Street. The golden yellow Falun Dafa Team walked along the street slowly. At the front of the team were banners reading "Falun Dafa" and "Truth Compassion Tolerance," which were followed by a beautifully decorated float. A few practitioners in exercise uniforms peacefully and serenely demonstrated the exercises. Ten female practitioners in beautiful Chinese costumes performed traditional Chinese dances. Their dances showed the beauty of Chinese traditional culture and received a warm welcome from the audience.
After the parade, the practitioners appeared at a booth in the market, where they displayed truth-clarifying information and taught the exercises for free. They brought the beauty of Falun Dafa to the people of Crawford.
