The NPCA “Lucked Out” –They were turned down by Trumps’ parade people

As we have done on previous occasions, NPCA and our local affiliate group, RPCVs of Washington, D.C., submitted an application on behalf of the Peace Corps community to participate in the 58th Presidential Inaugural Parade on January 20, 2017. We received word this week that our group was not chosen.Historically, we most recently submitted a successful application in 2008, while our Peace Corps community was not chosen for the 2012 inaugural parade. We will continue to seek every opportunity to raise the Peace Corps flag high at public events of this nature.
