The parade route will be starting
at Broad and Walnut Streets and go to the Fireman's Memorial
Hall at 207 East Broad Street and turn south from there. There
will be lots of traffic in this area so please stay alert.
Prior to the parade all entries
will be judged. Four awards will be given: Best Use of Theme,
Best Business Float, Best Organization Float, and Judge's Choice.
We ask that you abide by these
rules during the parade:
1) Make sure your position
number is posted on both the left and right side of your entry.
2) Throwing items from floats
is not prohibited, however, for the safety of bystanders we request
that any items you are giving away (candy, etc) be given out
by people walking along side your entry.
3) Please maintain a safe distance
from the entry in front of you but do not allow a large gap to
open in front of your entry.
4) No reckless driving in the
parade line-up area or during the parade route. You will be asked
not to participate in the parade if necessary.
The parade will be announced
to the public downtown in front of the bank. The award winners
will be stopped during the parade in front of the announcer's
stand and their plaque will be presented at that time.
For those who are coming from
out of town, we would like to remind you of the Keno Lounge,
Church Lunch, Evening BarBQue and a few food vendors in the Flea
Market area where you can eat. Please
check out our schedule for a list of all events.
Thanks for joining us this
special year. Enjoy the day's activities !
