All Parade Units must enter the lineup area at the intersection of 6th St. N (Hwy 35) and Sommers St. N.

• In order for all units to be facing the correct direction for the Parade start, it is crucial that directions into
the lineup area are followed. There is not room for units to turn around.
• Parade Marshals will be at key intersections, with yellow vests, to direct you into your lineup space.
• The Parade begins promptly at 11:00am at the intersection of 8th St. N and Michaelson St. N.

Tear Down:

• The Parade Announcer(s) will be located at the intersection of Monroe and 6th St N (Hwy 35) which is
approximately 1 block from the end of the parade route.
• Please DO NOT stop in front of the announcing stand as we must keep the parade moving.

Rules and Guidelines:
• Throwing candy or items from a moving vehicle is prohibited.
◦ If you plan to pass something out, you must hand it out curbside.
◦ Please have a plan in place if you need to restock those who are handing items out.
• DO NOT stop your parade unit in the parade route. We have limited time to get all of the parade units
through so all units must keep moving.

we have many parade entries.
