Get Your Float On! The 4th of July Parade Wants YOU!

The third annual Park Hill 4th of July Parade is only a month away! As promised, the parade will have a float contest as a way for everyone to get more creative and festive with their entries.

Categories this year will be:

Best in Show. This will be awarded to the best overall entry based on creativity, design, originality and construction.

Most Patriotic. Think you like the Red, White and Blue? Well, load it up onto your float and you just might win in this category!

Best Kids Entry. Step aside, parents, and let your kids do the work. This award will go to the float that best puts the kids in charge.

The floats will get judged in the staging area and will pass by for final review at the start of the parade. Results will be announced at the end of the parade.

It’s not too late to register at www.parkhillparade.org
