Tips & Advice
- Register your float by November 25, and email parade@rockwallkiwanis.org if you miss the deadline and still want to enter.
- Have your float lined up and ready before the parade starts, because judging begins early and only covers floats that are already in place.
- Build your float around "The Magic of Christmas," since judges score each entry on how well it captures this year's theme.
- If your entry includes horses, plan to bring your own cleanup, because the rules make horse entries responsible for it.
- Bring a bag for the kids, since marchers are allowed to hand out candy along the parade route.
