It is time for an American Reunion . After years of division, the American people have voiced their belief that it is time for this country to come together, to rediscover our common values and beliefs.
It is in this new spirit of hope and inclusion that this Inauguration was planned . We hope that this inaugural celebration will be a time to take stock of who we are as a people, as well as a chance to renew the energies we need to face the common challenges that lie before us.
"An American Reunion -- New Beginni ngs, Renewed Hope" represents the spirit of both the inaugural and the new administration . The events s c heduled -- from free fes t ivals and concerts, to bus trips and the opening of the White House to the public -- will make this inaugural celebration one of the most accessible in history.
Sincerely,

• very four years something unheard of in much of the world happens in America - an open election is held and peaceful transfer of power takes place. In actuality, the
Inauguration itself is quite simple. The President-elect takes the oath of office as prescribed in the Constitution and thereby becomes President. But inaugural week is not as simple, nor as predictable. It consists of a complex se1ies of events designed to
refl ect the style and personality of the incomjng president and administration.
The tradition of tiding into the nation 's capital began with George W ashington , whose seven-day journey from Mount Vernon was greeted by parades, receptions, and speeches. Two other notewor­ thy journeys to the capital include Abraham Lincoln 's in 1861, when he arrived secretly by train because of the tensions of the time; and W oodrow Wilson's, in 1913, when he and his famil y were accompanjed by men from P1inceton University who sang.
In 1789 the first inaugural parade was held. The first parade held inside the Disnict of Columbia followed Thomas Jefferson's Swea1ing-ln Ceremony in 1805. That " parade" was a spontaneous procession of mechanics from the Navy Yard displaying the insignia of their crafts, who escorted President Jefferson along Pennsylvan ia Avenu e from the Capitol to what was then known as " the President's House. " A military escort quickly became the chi ef feature - and for some years virtually the only organized feature - of inaugural parades.
Over the years the route and the composition of the parade have become almost etched in stone. Three times though, circumstances have forced the cancellation of the parade: in 192 1 because
President-elect Harding was concern ed about President Wilson's failing health ; in 1945 because ofWorld War II; and in 1985 because of dangerously cold weather.
In 1789 the first inaugural ball was held. In 1809 th e first ball to be held in the Distiict of C olumbia celebrated James Madison's inauguration. This was also the fi rst ball to be planned and held on Inauguration Day as part of the offic ial ceremonies. Though most agreed that the event was splendid, John Quincy Adams wrote that "The crowd was excessive, the heat oppressive, and the entertain­ ment bad. "
The first Sweating- In C eremony was held outside, on th e balcony of Federal Hall in New York City in 1789. Subsequent sweating­ in ceremonies were held inside until 1817, w hen the ceremony was moved to a portico at the temporary Capitol in Washington . Most presidential and vice presidential swearing-in ceremonies have been held outside on the East Front of the Capi tol. In 198 1 they were moved to the W est Front of the Capitol to accommodate larger crowds.
Traditionally, the C hief Justi ce has given the O ath of Office to the President. With the oath being administered at the seat of th e Legislative Branch, by the head of the Judicial Branch to the C hief Executive, alJ three branches of the U .S. Governmenc are fittingly represented at th e Swea1ing- ln Ceremony.
lnJanua1y 1961, John F. Kennedy stood outside the Capitol and urged his listeners to "ask not what your countty can do for you, ask w hat you can do for your country." The Address, which follows the Sweating-In C eremony, is the first opportunity fo r the new president to address the Ame1ican people and to outline where he or she plans to lead the nation.

THE 1993 PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURAL PARADE
• he inaugural parade is a tradition that dates from the Inauguration of George W ashington in 1789. On h.is long journey to New York , each city welcomed him
with great revelry and decoration. After W ashingto n's Swear­ ing- In Ceremony on th e steps of Federal Ha.II , soldiers he commanded during the R evolutionary W ar gathered to lend their vo ices to the celebration. Ca ught up in th e excitement of the occasion, th e troops began to cheer - and then to march - esco rting President W ashin gton throu gh th e crowded streets of N ew York C ity. Such was th e birth of th e inaugural para de, o ne of the most colorful and delightful traditi ons associated with the inaugural ceremony.
The 1993 Inaugural Parade will refl ect the breadth and depth of Ameri ca, as civilian and military bands and marchin g units, floats, equ estrian units, and a variety of perform ers and enter­ tain ers converge in W ashin gton to celebrate th e new administra­ tion. All 50 states, the District of Columbia , and the U .S. territori es will be represented in this year's parade and embody th e 1993 inaugural th eme of " An Am erica n R eunio n - N ew Beginnings, R enewed Hope."
To co mplement the roster of traditional inaugural parade parti cipants, th e parade also will include a wide vari ety of unique perform ers ranging from a poli ce motorcycle drill team , ethni c and folk dan cers, miniature horses, and a number o f youth groups.
