IMPORTANT RULES & REGULATIONS

  1. Absolutely NO SPRAYING WATER OR THROWING WATER. Due to numerous complaints of camera damage, soaked clothes and safety risks to small children & seniors, there will be no spraying of water allowed of any kind. Anyone caught spraying water will be removed from the parade.

  2. Due to the safety of children - No entry is permitted to throw or hand out candy or other freebies from their parade float or vehicle which may entice children out into the street. Handouts must be done by individuals walking in close proximity to the viewing or receiving audience. Failure to abide by this rule may result in forfeiting any prize money awarded and/or removal from any future parades.

  3. NEW - The South Shore Exhibition encourages all business and organizations to get involved in the exhibition. We welcome all floats and business vehicles that are pulling floats. Due to the length of the parade we are limiting commercial vehicles that are not towing a float or is a float itself. All businesses that are sponsors of the 2008 South Shore Exhibition (min. of Silver Level-$100) are welcome to put one commercial vehicle in the parade at no cost. If you are a business who does not participate or sponsor the exhibition, there will be a fee of $100.00 for a commercial vehicle with a limit of one. This fee will go back into the prize money awarded for floats, to help offset some of their costs.

  4. To help prevent spaces or gaps in the parade, No entry can stop to perform or impede the forward motion of the Parade. Walking entries that have a problem with the length of the parade are encouraged to use a mobile flatbed.

  5. Parade Officials have the right to reject any entry that in their opinion does not meet parade standards.
