Parade Entry
Parade Entries postmarked after June 4 cannot be accepted
The Northern California Parade Judges Association has requested we submit the lineup at least three weeks prior to the 4th of July. This deadline date allows our volunteers to properly process applications and prepare the lineup.
Equestrian judging will follow the California State Horsemen’s Association Parade Rules. Horses must be “parade ready,” and able to accept parade noises and activities and remain calm for safety reasons.
