On parade day, portable toilets will be provided around the various staging areas, but there are no facilities for changing clothes.
Candy may be distributed by people WALKING CURBSIDE.
Candy tossed from vehicles MUST LAND AT THE CURB.
Excited children (and adults) running into the street for candy during a parade can be hazardous.
All units should hold proper intervals in the procession (approximately 20 feet)—DO NOT CROWD OR ALLOW LARGE GAPS.
There will be Parade Marshals along the route that can help, as necessary.
All entries will be directed to disband at HARE FIELD.
