Organizers of the Oakland County Holiday Extravaganza provided attendees with operational details about the parade and post-ceremony logistics at the event in Pontiac. Presenters named the Flagstar Strand Theatre as the host venue and thanked sponsors and volunteers including Lee Industrial Contracting, Priority Waste, photographer Eric Hobson and volunteer coordinator Linda Zivak.

Event instructions emphasized transportation and assembly: the transcript records an announcement that a parks and recreation bus was available and that "the bus will depart at 10:15AM," with guidance for riders to board by that time. Organizers spelled out lineup assignments for elected officials, grand marshals and parade vehicles, and noted that county executive Dave Coulter and guests would ride in Santa's sleigh.

Photographic logistics were also given: the emcee described six group photos and specified which officials and recipient groups should be in each picture. The announcements concluded with thanks to staff, volunteers and the Oakland County Parks and Recreation department for staging transportation to the parade viewing stand.

No formal votes or policy actions were recorded during the announcements; the remarks are procedural and logistical in nature.
