1. Floats
2. Businesses and residents to make financial contributions to sponsor bands
3. Bands that are interested in marching
Floats - Would you like to showcase your business on a float? Or do you want to march in the parade with your business? All is possible. Contact Sgt. Foulds at the NAPD for float and participant guidelines.
Financial sponsors - Are you interested in advertising your business parade day but are unable to walk or enter a float. You can still help by sponsoring, co sponsoring or group sponsoring a band. You will be able to put your company banner in the parade while helping defray the costs the bands endure.
FACT: For a band to march in a parade it can cost them $1500.00 - $4000.00 to participate. This is why we are reaching out to the businesses and residents that would like to help make a donation towards supporting a band.
Bands - They're signing up and the list already has more participants than last year.
**There will also be a competition for BEST FLOAT**
CONTACT: If you have any questions or are interesting in participating or donating please contact Sgt. Foulds at the NAPD 978 683-3168 or email at EFoulds@napd.us
