Parade Tips and Guidelines

Tips for a Great Day

To help ensure your best parade experience possible take note of these helpful hints:

• Three announcers’ tents are located along the route. These areas feature additional entertainment elements and amplified sound for spectators’ enjoyment.
• Parking is limited on the day of the parade. Carpool with friends bike or even walk to the parade.
• The parade route is lined with grass so bring a chair open an umbrella or lay a blanket to enjoy the parade comfortably.

Attendees may set up their viewing area starting July 3 at 7 a.m. Items placed prior to this time will be removed and donated.)
• Don’t forget it’s hot out there! To beat the heat drink plenty of water (one cup every 15-20 minutes) even if you don’t feel thirsty wear protective clothing and slather on sunscreen.
• Be responsible with your children and keep them safe during the parade. Do not allow kids—or kids at heart—to enter the parade route and approach entries during the event.
• Wear red white and blue to celebrate America and display your patriotism. Consider bringing a few decorations to make your viewing location extra-spirited!
