Get ready for a lively and colourful event in Grimlinghausen, as the annual children's parade is set to take place on Saturday, August 26. This much-anticipated event will see over 1,200 children from various schools participating, each adorned with unique uniforms and props.

The gathering points for the schools and kindergartens will be on Hymngasse and the Romanum. A total of 28 shooters, including Lukas Klinger who competes with the Norf target shooters and the Neuss artillery, will hold the signs with each school's respective name and a self-designed motif for the parade.

The procession will be led by a brass band or drum corps, adding a festive and rhythmic start to the parade. The route will take the children through the heart of Grimlinghausen, starting from Hymgasse, proceeding via the market, turning right onto Büchel, descending to Glockhammer, turning right onto Glockhammer, continuing straight to Batteriestraße, turning right onto Batteriestraße, continuing straight to the market, turning right at the market and then proceeding straight ahead.

At the market, a brief speech will be given, followed by a joint singing of the Heimatlied. Parents are welcome to use the stands at the market, but seats cannot be guaranteed due to the inability to control who is a family member.

Teachers and parents have been busy preparing for the event, with the Pestalozzi School registering the most students for the parade. Maria Meyen, the team leader of the Pestalozzi primary school, and her husband Mario have been active in the Neuss shooting festival. Verena Jung, deputy OGATA director, has shown diligence in sewing uniforms, while Lukas Klinger, an OGATA educator, has demonstrated his craftsmanship and artistic talents in creating props for the march.

Petra Heckhausen, the director of the Open Extended Day Care, is leading "marching exercises" for students in grades two to four. Dr. Ulrich has added a note about the stands at the market. Maria Meyen expects her "little ones" to sing loudly during the Heimatlied performance.
