What was the parade going on down Woodward today, in Highland Park? Started at Tuxedo to Pilgrim, anyone?

I had no idea there is a "Michigan Week." This link is 10 years old, so maybe nobody else knows about it either...

Also saw some news items about Michigan Week events across the state in cities such as Monroe, Marshall, and Grandville.

Not specific to this parade, of course, but will parades [[specifically Thanksgiving) still run down Woodward with M1Rail up and running? I would think the infrastructure would kind of make it difficult to do parades there anymore [[especially in the center-running portions). Everyday transportation is more important than rare parades, but I will still miss the parade being on Woodward, if it were moved. Anyone know for sure if this has been addressed?
