Light Up Logansport!
Parade Entry Criteria

• Floats should be free standing, three dimensional, lighted displays

• Floats should be no more than 10 feet in height (from the ground) and 16 feet in length

• Floats should be built on trailers/frames

• Floats should be lighted at least 80%, generators or other power source on the floats will be required. We also suggest the use of a battery from an 18 wheel truck or tractor with an ac/dc inverter. These will last up to 4 hours and are quiet.

• All construction materials must be fire and weather (moisture, wind, etc.) resistant

• All entries should be properly identified with signs or banners with the organization’s name so the spectators know who you are.

• Floats must be pulled by an ATV (All Terrain Vehicle), garden tractor or by hand. Semi Tractor/Trailers and box-type trucks, pick-up trucks and vans are not allowed for safety reasons. We will provide a garden tractor or ATV upon request. Please contact Jan Fawley, Logansport Parks Department, 753-6969.

• Drivers must be at least 18 years of age and have a valid driver’s license.  A copy of their driver’s license must be turned in by October 31.

• Due to the fact that the parade is presented at night, entries are NOT permitted to throw or in any way distribute candy, literature or any other items from a parade unit.

• No entry will be admitted into the parade that has not been pre-registered. Entries will not be accepted or considered after October 31.

• Walkers are encouraged rather than people riding on floats

• Walkers should have battery-pack lights on their person or costume

• No Santa Clauses, please. Santa and Mrs. Claus have already agreed to be in the parade.
