CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â You might remember the Navy Army Night Parade making itâs way through the streets of Corpus Christi, but this year the parade is looking a little different because itâs being held at the American Bank Center.
The American Bank Center is preparing for the parade by putting up plexiglass for the deluxe suites and making sure everyone is adhering to COVID safety protocols like social distancing and wearing a mask. They also made sure to separate seating according to social distancing guidelines from the health district. They also had to plan out the parade route, which looked similar to the route cars took during the drive-in vaccination clinics.
