Parade Unit General Rules and Guidelines  

Parade Information

Forward Motion Parade:

All entries are required to maintain a continuous forward motion during the parade.

Take parade route length [approximately one (1) mile] into consideration and have back-up transportation for younger participants who may get tired and potentially slow down the parade.

Parade officials may change pace or stop forward motion to maintain suitable space between entries.

Each parade unit and groups are required to follow their requests to speed up or slow down.

Identification Signs:  Identification banners are encouraged for entries in the parade.

Cancellation Policy:  The parade always takes place rain, shine, snow, hail, or sleet.  We have had it all and the parade still goes on.  If for some

unforeseen reason your unit is not able to participate in the parade after being accepted, please contact the parade coordinator three days or more in advance.

Parade Day:  Entries absent on parade day without proper notification may not receive future invitations to the parade.

Entry Application Form:  The entry application form must be completed and signed with the understanding of the general rules and guidelines. 

                Incomplete entry forms will not be accepted.  Failure to abide by these rules and guidelines may result in the unit’s removal from the parade

                and jeopardize future invitations.
