Rules and Guidelines for all Entrants/Participants

Rules and Guidelines for all Entrants/Participants. Note you must agree to all of these rules and guidelines. *

I agree that due to safety requirements, no items such as candy or toys, etc shall be thrown from vehicles, floats, etc. Escorts must walk alongside the entry to hand out such items. It will be dark out and it is difficult for vehicles to see anyone who may be trying to grab items.

I agree that the entry will maintain a safe space of approximately 20 feet from the entry ahead of them while in the parade route.

I will keep pace and avoid any gaps, stalling or spaces as this will adversely affect the parade and take away from spectator enjoyment. If any entry stalls/stops, the parade will move around it.

I agree that the entry, float and vehicle decorations and the attire of the participants must be thoroughly illuminated and decorated in the spirit of the event. Entries will not be accepted without lighting. Floats should be no larger than 20 ft wide, 55 ft long and 15 ft tall. Please construct floats safely keeping in mind fire safety, weight of riders, wiring, materials used, etc.

I agree that if a four-wheel vehicle, it will be clean, decorated and illuminated. It is encouraged that these entries be associated with a club, group, association or business. Individuals with antique cars, hot rods or tractors may also participate. Participants may want to have individuals each side of the vehicle to prevent children/ pedestrians from darting under and add to the spirit of the event (this is recommended for additional safety, but it is not mandatory).

I agree that the entry is not a semi/ tractor-trailer truck, due to safety concerns.

I agree not to honk or use sirens during the parade.

I agree that the entry will not include a Santa Claus on its float or in its theme.

I agree that if the entry violates the rules governing the parade, it will be immediately removed from the parade and will be subject to disqualification from future parade participation

Any entry not completing the route as a complete unit will not be judged. The determination of entry placement and category is governed by the parade director and is final.
