ROMULUS, Mich. (AP) - Travelers flying into Detroit Metropolitan Airport will be welcomed by some of the clowns taking part in Detroit's annual Thanksgiving Day parade.

The Parade Company's Distinguished Clown Corps will pass out beads Wednesday at the Delta terminal at the airport in Romulus.

More than 100 members of the group will march along Woodward into downtown Detroit Thursday morning to celebrate the 25 years the Clown Corps has taken part in America's Thanksgiving Parade.

The group is made up of corporate and community leaders who volunteer and dress in full costume.
