Parade Day Tips for the Whole Family

A hometown parade is one of the best days of the year. A little planning makes it easy.
Arrive early
The best curbside spots go fast.
Bring chairs and shade
Lawn chairs and a hat make the wait comfortable.
Pack water and snacks
Parades run longer than you think.
Pick a meeting spot
Agree where to meet if anyone gets separated.
Watch the little ones
Keep kids back from the curb when floats pass.
The candy is nice, but the memories are better.
