Tips & Advice

- Participants should arrive at Everett Meredith Middle School for lineup well before the start, because staff assign each group its place in the parade order there.
- The parade starts promptly, so get to your spot along South Broad Street before it begins or you'll miss the lead police vehicle and first groups.
- Dress warmly and bring something to sit on if you plan to watch from the curb on a December morning along the northbound route.
