Please read the updated instructions listed below:
The parade line up starts at 2:00pm in the upper southwest parking lot of the Santa Ana Star center. All parade entries must be in place by 4:00pm and the judging committee will score the floats prior to the parade which starts at 5:15pm. No entry may feature a Santa Claus (or Santa suit ) or Mrs Claus. Santa and Mrs Claus will be riding on the fire engine as the parade's last vehicle. More than one Santa tends to confuse the smaller children. Candy may NOT be thrown from parade vehicles but may be handed out by people while walking. When registering, please mention that you are in the 4th Row, Slot 26 under the name NM 4 Wheelers. Please call me if you have any questions.
