Your organization should have a banner or its equivalent for clear identification of your unit. This will assist in identifying your organization as it passes the reviewing stand. The parade Master of Ceremonies will use the application information to recognize and describe your group.

All participating units should arrive at the CFCC Schwartz Center parking lot by 9:30 AM for placement in the parade.
