Falun Gong practitioners were the only Chinese group in the parade, and it was their second time in the Detroit parade. The exercise demonstration and waist drum performances attracted many people's attention. Spectators accepted flyers and applauded warmly as the practitioners passed by.

Mr. Mike Kelly, the parade organizer, welcomed the practitioners and lauded Falun Gong's principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."
