You will need to bring something to attach the number to your vehicle. 

  1. The parade will go in reverse again this year, from the north end of the bypass (Clarksville side) to the south end of the bypass (Nashville side). This will give us more room to line up floats, it is safer with the more room and it will cause less issues with traffic.

  3. You will need to pick a location for everyone to meet prior to getting into the parade's staging area. If you have multiple floats that you want to be together, you will need to arrive in the staging area together. We will not be able to move floats around to get you all together. Please arrive how you want to go through the parade. 
  4. If your float is in the staging area and someone needs to get onto it - they will need to park at Riverbluff walk the trail going under the Cumberland Bridge up to the bypass. Or park at the Tennis courts and walk up to the bypass. We will NOT allow cars down the bypass to drop off people, please relay this to your group.
  5. Walkers and horses will need to come through the staging area, get your number/letter and then gather at the parking lot at Higher's Propane; walkers can be picked up at Riverbluff Park. Horses will be at he end of the parade line.
