Do remember the following parade rules and tips and please take this opportunity to read and convey this information amongst all participants in your parade unit entry.

Most important is that all walking group parade participants; Scout Troops, Dance Teams etc. access the parade formation area by utilizing San Jose Ave. and Rubio to be dropped off and then walk across the park to the assembly area. Do not attempt driving on Chatsworth Street or Petit those areas already have assigned parade units.

7. Portable fire extinguishers need to be on each float.
The Parade starts promptly at 1:30pm
