Floats built by local
families, organizations, churches and businesses are welcome to enter the
parade.
Floats can be entered into the following
categories:
Comic
Fancy
Religious
Original
Youth
Organization
Dance Group/Float
The parade coordinator may change your
category as necessary, unless you state on the registration form
that you
would prefer to not have your category changed.
There are two emcee
stationed along the parade route with one at the fire hall and the other at the
judges' stand on Friesburg Road. As each float passes the emcees, the emcee
will briefly describe
the float. Descriptions are derived from the background
information that you provide on your
registration form. Please keep your
descriptions brief because the emcees only have a short amount
of time to
announce your float before it passes by their stands.
Please do not
forget to include the length of your trailer and the vehicle pulling it. This
information
is vital to the committee members who mark out the line up on
parade night. The entry length that you state
on your registration form is
the amount of space that your entry will be given.
It is important to
state whether or not your entry will have music so that the committee can try to
line
up your entry so that it is not directly adjacent to other music
entries.
Please remember that shotguns, firecrackers, cherry bombs, etc.
are PROHIBITED!
For the safety of our parade goers, the throwing of candy
or other objects is strictly prohibited.
