Parade Guidelines

Safety is a strong concern for both participants and spectators
and has been addressed resulting in the following regulations.

3.     The float will be inspected during the week of June 9th at the float building site unless other arrangements have been made with the committee. Please CALL (603) 543-3146 for an APPOINTMENT.
 

4.     Children riding on a float (12 years or younger) MUST have adult supervision.
 

5.     Participants wishing to distribute candy to the crowd must do so by walking along the route so as not to tempt a child to come too close to a moving vehicle thus eliminating the possibility of a child being pushed or falling under any unit.
