Tips & Advice

- Build your float, car or horse entry around the year's parade theme, since a trophy goes to the best use of the theme.
- Leave the Santa suit at home, because only the official parade Santa Claus is allowed in the parade.
- Add plenty of Christmas lights to your entry, since one of the trophies goes to the best use of Christmas lights.
