fair courts, bands and several others.
Some divisions will be judged before
the parade starts, so if you would
like a chance at an award, be sure
to get there before 9:30 a.m.
If you are planning on riding a
horse in the parade, a special

Riverside Street will be open and is
a great place to unload and ready
