All Floats (Large and Small) and Self-Propelled or Walking Groups with 10 or more people must have four (4) parade wranglers to stand beside each wheel/corner of your group and ensure that no onlookers gets in front of the parade.

Wranglers will receive a t-shirt to identify themselves and will be responsible for directing foot traffic away from moving vehicles involved in the parade.

The PBG requires cell phone access to all of your Parade Wranglers throughout the full duration of the parade.
The PBG will communicate with you during the parade via text if necessary.

Parade Wranglers are responsible for:

Safely accompanying floats along the parade route and keeping the wheels clear of parade onlookers and other participating groups
Communicating with Parade Officials and Police regarding pacing and safety issues and alerts
Parade Wranglers are NOT considered part of your entry but must be visible in order to have your float enter the parade.
Parade Wranglers are NOT allowed to carry banners or hand out materials.

Individual Parade Wranglers will be emailed information outlining appropriate attire and rules for participating. The instructions must be read and signed off on by each Parade Wrangler.

If you show up without your wranglers on the day of the parade, you will not be allowed to participate.
