Arrival -
You will be meeting Ms Jami at the float, no later than 7:15am. In the past, the best place to park is over near Outback or Dollar Tree, and walk them over to the float. A lot of parking will be blocked off for the floats, so please be patient as you enter the mall area. You should be able to enter at Wendy’s or Gabe’s entrance. We are towards the end of the parade right before Santa, so we probably won’t even start to move until about 8:30. The Judges for the floats come around between 7:30-7:50am, so that is why we have to be there so early. There are no bathrooms around the float area, so please make sure your child goes before they leave the house, and not too much to drink :). if you would like to bring (non messy) snacks for them, that is fine. We ask that you stay with your child and the float until just before the parade starts.

In years past, we pull out near Red Robin, go left towards Target and the Movies, go all the way around, and then the parade ends just after We pass chick fil a. You must wait for the float to come to a complete stop and park until you grab your child. All petites and juniors must have a parent or guardian let Ms Jami or myself know when they are there to pick them up. Again, you may have to walk to the disembark area to pick them up. Most of the area is not open for vehicles.

Hair should be in low styled ponytail (curly or straight) and make up should be performance ready to match your costume. Lipstick is a must. People that need to see Ms Jami for things as soon as they arrive :

Brynlee - Hairbow
Ava C - Elf Outfit
Brielle - Barbie Sweatshirt


I think that is it! Such a fun exhausting day and it’s all over by 10am 🤦‍♀️
