The theme for the parade this year is Winter Wonderland! We encourage you to create your float design with our theme as the primary focus. Floats will be judge in the following categories based on the theme Winter Wonderland.

1) Mayor's Trophy (best overall entry)

2) Grand Marshal's Trophy (best creative entry)

3) Santa's Trophy (best Christmas Spirit)

4) Rudolf's Trophy (best lighted entry)

5) Reindeer Trophy (best musical/vocal/dance entry)

‍

With it being nighttime, we encourage lights! It will be dark when parade starts, so use those LIGHTS!!! (You will supply all electricity for your entry) Be creative! We do ask that you don’t have Santa on your float as he will be at the end of the parade already!! Please have some type of banner in front of your entry announcing your groups name.

Please…no items can be thrown from vehicles! You may have someone walking beside your entry to hand out candy, beads etc. This is for the safety of the children. Thank you for your cooperation.

All Parade Slots have been filled, we are no longer taking registrations for parade participants.

‍There is a $20 fee for each parade entry. We will send out a confirmation email with your lineup number and check in location to you before parade date.
