11:00 am: Step off - the official route begins at Center and Main Streets, so contingents will line up will be on Center St., proceeding left down Main Street, left down Buffalo Street, ending at Buffalo Street and Pleasant Ave.

There will be Village staff directing floats and large vehicles where to go after the parade has finished.

If your organization includes a performance, please note that there will now be THREE locations for you to perform. Performances will be in front of Rise Fitness, The Grange Community Kitchen and The Palace Theater. If you are performing, we ask that you provide your own music and speaker - and to please note on your sign up form that you will have a performance.

If the parade is canceled for any weather related reason, you will be notified by email no later than 8am the morning of the parade.

 

It is required that groups carry a sign/banner.

RULES:

1. If your organization is passing out candy or treats along the parade route, CANDY IS NOT TO BE THROWN INTO THE CROWD. Candy should either be handed to parade spectators directly, or rolled towards them. This is to ensure the safety of babies and children.

 

2. Groups may not include anyone dressed as Santa or Mrs.Claus; there is only one, and the Parade Committee has already arranged for their appearance in our parade.
