43rd Annual Cowboy Homecoming Parade
The parade takes place rain or shine. Only a significant
act of nature will cancel the parade, of which all units will
be notified. If for some reason your parade entry will not
be in the parade we would greatly appreciate being
notified prior to the event.
All entry forms must be completed and returned to the
Chamber of Commerce office prior to August 1, 2008.
Entries requiring vehicles to carry sound systems must
notify parade organizers on the application. Please
remember that NO articles whatsoever may be thrown,
handed or passed from any float or vehicle.(gum, candy,
beads, flyers, etc.)
Entrants not complying with these rules may not be invited
back for future parades.
Because this is an election year, we have researched
Parade etiquette and we were told that rank of
government determines the line up in a parade... for
example – a governor would have preference over a
senator and a senator over a city official.
We ask that if you are an elected official and you are
interested in taking part in our parade you notify us on
your entry form so that we can place you according to
rank.
All parade entry forms must be returned to the Chamber of Commerce office by August 1, 2008. Forms may be hand delivered to: 605 2nd St. Pleasanton, between the hours of 9 am and 3 pm or mailed to: PO Box 153, Pleasanton, TX, 78064 |
| The 2008 Parade will start at 10am at the corner of Orts St. and Bryant St. However the first numbered float will begin at the corner of Orts and Long St. The floats will continue to line up behind one another down Long St., down Blue Bonnet Dr., down Grant St. etc. Every entry will have a number, and we would appreciate it if the bands and mounted groups would line up with the floats so that everyone can get judged. Any entrants not in the line up will not get judged. |
