This year the parade is honoring John Thein. Thein, who is a longtime Roseville resident, is retiring this summer after 27 years of working for the Roseville Area Schools, including 17 years as Superintendent. DeRusha and Yuccas are co-anchors for WCCO 4 News in the Morning.

The Rose Parade is one of the biggest in the Twin Cities. The parade begins at 6:15 p.m. It will have 90 entrants, including 11 marching bands, in the parade.
