All parade participants that provided an email should have parade information in your inbox. If not the information is posted below. Line up is subject to change as needed.

We are excited for the parade, which is shaping up to be one of our largest yet. That being said, WE NEED YOUR HELP, to ensure that line up and kick off go smoothly.

Parade line up will begin at 9AM. Please do not arrive prior to 9AM or you will likely have to move your entry to the correct place in line.

A map of approximately where parade participants can expect to line up in the HS parking lot in posted and attached.

Unless otherwise noted, ALL parade participants/floats MUST check in at the check-in station at the west driveway off Elm Creek Road. The East driveway/gate will be closed and only opened by parade personnel for those who have permission.
**Veterans Groups may assemble in the front parking lot.
** Ray C's Extreme will be lined up in the east driveway off Elm Creek Road.
**Dynamic Dance Studio will line up to the North of the speed bumps, but off the driveway as much as possible.
**Tractors, Fire Trucks and Horses, Cows, etc., will check in and assemble at Parson's barns off Banker Street.

If you have a large group of people who will be riding on or walking with your entry, please meet at the NB Elementary school and walk or ride the float to the high school parking lot. There is NO PARKING FOR EXTRA VEHICLES at the HS or MS. If you are dropping off parade participants, you can do so at the check-in station and will be required to turn your vehicle around and exit the parking lot. Take note and please plan accordingly.

Your parade number should be placed on the front right side of your entry (aka windshield, fender, etc.)

The tractors and horses/animals will be threaded into the parade line up at the corner of M90 and Brush Street. Be prepared to stop your parade entry while those coming from Parsons are threaded into the lineup.

Please keep all entries moving during the parade, to avoid large gaps and provide a great viewing experience for spectators.

The parade will go on rain or shine unless severe weather is present. But the forecast looks good right now.
