Further, I commit to following the Veterans Day Parade requirements as follows:
• All parade entries must be fully and appropriately decorated or the entry will be subject to exclusion from the parade with no reimbursement or refund. All entries must conform to community standards of taste and decorum.
• To avoid the possibility of injury to participants and spectators, participants must be cautious when throwing candy or other items from any float or vehicle in the parade. Please do not toss items into the crowd. Participants may walk alongside their float and hand out items near the barricade line. Nothing may be handed out in the path of the entry. Entries that do not follow this rule may be banned from future events.
• Animals participating in the parade must be harnessed or leashed. Owners must provide proof of liability insurance for animals with their application and have it available on the day of the event.
• Weather Policy: The Veterans Day Parade is a rain-or-shine event. If severe weather or safety concerns arise, the parade may be delayed, modified, or canceled at the discretion of the organizers. Refunds will not be issued due to weather-related changes or cancellations.
