For safety purposes, nothing is to be thrown from any unit in the parade. People may walk alongside the road and distribute items, but no paper leaflets or brochures of any kind are allowed to be distributed.

All horses will unload at Kelly Field in the parking lot. There will be no parking on West Street. To enter a float, contact Larry Glasford at  (515) 249-8419  and leave a message.
